bandtosleever512 got a reaction from Angie74 in You're Cheating
It's hard but chalk it up to ignorance. I was banded and some not all had rude comments however I worked my ass off literally. I lost the most weight of anyone I knew through eating healthy and working out 6 days a week. My cousin, 2 co workers, neighbor and friend NEVER lost what I did…they also never put in the work I did. It will be what you make of it but show her how great you look and when she opens her big mouth again tell her how much your "cheating" working out and eating healthy! maybe that'll shut her up! it certainly shut up the ppl who gave me snide comments pre band.

bandtosleever512 got a reaction from choicemun in For those of you with kids.
I told them I was going away for a couple of days at work on a "conference" I will tell them I was working out at the gym and pulled my back as to why I maybe hunched and a lil pain. My daughter is slick and hopefully will buy it at 8 years old. My son is more oblivious to things and probably won't care. Good luck! I was banded before 4 years ago and not holding my son was the hardest part. They didn't know and don't remember now.

Been there done that, got the tshirt....only I was never that successful with the band and started having issues around year 2-3 timeframe.
Revised to sleeve 4 years ago, lost 150# been maintaining that for last 3 years.

Welcome back!

bandtosleever512 got a reaction from GibbsGirl in Not my first rodeo
Hello! Well, I never thought I would find myself back on these boards. I was banded 8/11/11 at 236lbs. I immediately without trying became 200. i then worked by butt off, literally…I trained harder than I ever thought I could. I began running and weight lifting, hardcore, I ran two half marathons and was on my way to a running a "tough mudder", my life was greater than i ever believe it could be. i went from highest weight ever 255 to a slim and fit 129. THEN…..I started having band troubles and without hesitation went to the dr for an unfill but a month later my band slipped and that was it. I lost my super powers lol
I then over the past two years have put on almost 60lbs. I can't run more than 4 miles now and I have succumbed to the realization that I need to have another bariatric surgery. So I am now scheduled for a sleeve on march 28th. Any words on wisdom or advice. I am now teetering around 190lbs and feel like I had the ultimate dream at my finger tips and lost it. I do still gym, my body is not as light and working out is harder because of the extra weight I have put on. I was hoping to lose on my own but no matter what Ive done I can't lose weight. Hoping the sleeve will help me lose some weight and turn my life back around. Thanks for any positive vibes, feedback or advice.
