    Hi everyone!
    Thought Id post a bit of progress.I have had a few ups and downs along the way..2 fills gaining weight constantly and no restriction-then 3rd time lucky on 11 June 08 result! I have lost just over 3 stones so far. Starting weight 20.6 stones (286 lbs) present weight 17.4l stones (242 lbs)
    There is 14lb to 1 stone if that makes it a little clearer(sorry for not adding that sooner)
    I have noticed clothes becoming looser and inches falling off. I dont feel deprived as I can still eat a fair amount. I think I am due another fill soon as I am starting to eat larger meals and feel hungry more often.Still losing every week around 1-2 lbs so still good result.
    Will post some photos soon,not a major difference yet-but its still early days. Happy banding everyone! xx

    Hi all,I have never done a blog before so excuse me if I make a right mess of it! Where do you start eh? I will try at the begining.
    Since I was about 12-13 years old ,I have always had a problem with food.I simply love it! Any of it-and nothing in particular! Lots of it,anytime of day/night.I just had to have it! lol
    I remember weighing 12.5 stones when I was 14,and progressing to 20.6 in Feb 08,when I finally made the step to get my band.
    Pre-op weight I was 20.6 stones before my 2 week liquid diet. Day of op 1st March 08,I weighed in at 19.2 stones. (gave up smoking day before op as well)
    Havent really lost any weight since then,although I have lost quite a few inches! I am trying to be much more actice and do lots more exercise.
    I had my 1st fill on 16th April 08,so far I dont feel any different but it is still early days I spose. Fingers crossed I will start to feel some restriction soon.
