  1. Checking to see if any of you have this sort of same scenario: I have been banded since July 24, 2009 and have been very satified with my progress, my weight loss has not been dramatic but I did only weigh 229 (at 5'1) when first weighed on 6/6/09. That is alot for a little frame. I was in a size 18, I am happy to report I am now in a size 12 at 186lbs. It seems to me I have lost more inches than weight, does anyone feel this way? Pre-op weight/day of Op weight/weight now 229/218/186:thumbup:
  2. I do burp, but the farting is what has worsened for me. :scared2:
  3. So, I have been banded since July 24, 2009 and have only lost 36 lbs:confused:. I do not feel that I am losing like I should. I have noticed inches are gone as well. I walk up to 4 times a week :thumbup:and I just do not know what I am doing wrong. :glare:Uuuuggggg!!!!! At this rate I will not see goal for another 8.5 to 9 month, I am patient but come on...........:drool:
