I was banded on Oct 15, 2009 weighing in at 215lbs.

I now weigh 155. I've lost 60 lbs. in 11 months.

I love my band (most of the time). It's been a challenge to learn a new way of eating after 55 years.

I would really love to lose another 15 lbs. It's slowed down so much for the past 2 months.

I could get a fill but I'm afraid of getting over-filled. That's when the problems come. I'm pretty tight. can't eat before noon, and I'm so glad to be maintaining and losing sloooowly.

My goal is size 8 jeans !!

any ideas?

I am in Austin and interested in getting together.

I was banded on 10-7-09. Have y'all got together yet?

here I am a week later. I went back to work today. I was tired easily and a bit spacey but it went ok. I'm still taking Advil and Motrin for pain around the port area.

I'm eating mushy/regular foods but certainly not much.

I do feel some restriction. but mostly I guess I just am not that hungry. I had a few bites of soft fish and mash potatoes and little bit of cooked greens. Then later in the day a bit of chicken and rice. a sugar free popsicle and a small Protein Shake. That's it Imagine that !

I'm thankful all has gone well.
