    1 year anniversary of the band! -143 lbs!

    Well, actually...I dont really exercise. I work two jobs, and stay active during the day, but I havent really exercised at all since my lapband. I know, I know....its bad. My success came from cutting bread out completely. I am a bread FEN! Within 6 months of getting my band, I kept getting bread stuck in my band, so I decided I would try for 2 weeks to not eat any bread (I still eat potatoes and corn, but no flour). In 2 weeks, I lost 17 lbs, and the weight FELL OFF. That has been my secret. GOOD LUCK to you! Keep in touch!

    am i going to keep losing????????

    I havent had a fill in 17 months. I have lost about 65 lbs since then, and keep loosing. I lost my first 120 in 14 months, then 65 in the past 17 months. I have only lost 3 1/2-4 lbs since Christmas. I dont know if you keep loosing. I have been told your body will naturally stop when its at your 'ideal' weight.

    Few questions please help.

    I will be honest with you. I started at 313 lbs, and am now at 152. I love my body, and the 'new' me, but if I had to do it over again, and could do it by myself ANYWAY POSSIBLE, I wouldn't do the surgery. It is a total complete life change. There are so many things you don't know before you go in. There are a lot of things you can't eat, days you don't feel well, etc. that you don't expect. It changes EVERYTHING. I lost -161 lbs in 22 months. I still have -15 more that I would like to loose. I would try as well as you can to do it on your own. Just my opinion. Tracey
  7. Hello! You posted on my board a couple of weeks ago. KEEP YOUR HEAD UP! You will love the results, and will be a different person with 'all is said and done.' It has been 20 months since my surgery, and I am down -157. I will pray for you, and that everything will go BETTER than you are dreaming! Tracey

  8. Hi Gillie-

    I just ready your post about people who have over 200 lbs to loose. I understand your desire for that! I have lost -179 lbs., and never thought I would. I wish I would have had the support when I was in the beginning stages. Please post at anytime. -Tracey

  9. Thank you so much. What a sweet and encouragement comment! I know you will have great success. This surgery has more to do with your mind than anything else. I am SO happy. Good luck to you! Tracey
