I saw your blog about getting discouraged. I just want to let you know that I am in the same boat. I was banded on Oct. 26 and I have only lost about 20-25 lbs. My doctor told me that if a "healthy" person loses 30lbs in the first year. You have meet the expectation. Healthy meaning overweight but no major healthy conditions. So don't give up, your doing great and your not alone When I'm feeling down, I try to remind myself not to compare myself to anyone else because everyone is different!

Hello! I was just wondering when you got the band??? I got mine on Oct 26th and have only lost about 20-25 lbs.

Oh no...I'm so..sorry to hear that. No way around it, that plain sucks! Did he say why it's a failure??

Awww...you poor thing. I feel your frustration. I'm only 3months out but I just had my 3rd fill and still don't feel restriction. and I'm only down 18lbs. It definitely is alot harder than I thought it was going to be. But I just remind myself that without the band, I would of never lost what I have. Keep your chin up hun, you are not alone and we are all here for your support when you need us. Btw...I think you look amazing and are very pretty

Awesome...Congrats, you are doing so..well And look great. I completely agree with the restriction part and watching what I eat. Head hungry is just plain evil. have you been working out?? With the holidays, it's been harder to get there but I've been going at least 3 times a week. Now, that they are over I'm going to up it to 4-5 days. As of last week, I was only down 17lbs but I think I'm losing inches. Either way, I'll take it

Hey Amanda,

I'm doing good. Still trying to get to my "sweet" spot. I had a second fill last week. but still feel like I need more. my next appt is in two weeks. How did your fill go?? How have you been doing?? Hope your holidays were good.

Hi hun...I got my fill today. It went great. You are going to love it! I do already I just hope it stays this good...please let me know how yours goes...only 6 more days

I get to start soft solid foods tomorrow ~ Yippy and I will also see if I lost anymore weight. I was down 9lbs on my 10th day out. I don't weigh myself at home. I don't want to get caught up in the numbers, yet anyway I really don't feel like I have any resistance now. So I can't wait for the fill Hope you have a fabulous Thanksgiving

Wow...you are doing amazing. How often do you work out??? You are such an inspiration.

Hi there....how are you?? Are you on solid foods??? How is everything going??? When will you get a fill??? Mine isn't until Dec. 8th. I can't wait.

You are very welcome, you look amazing I'm doing ok. Still in the healing process, which seems to take forever. lol but I know it's all for the best. I don't go for my first fill until Dec 8th. So in the mean time, I'm just adjusting to this new life...How have you been??

Hi there...I just wanted to say hello and see how your journey is going??

Hello...I read one of your blogs that said you had a sore neck and back..I had surgery on Monday and still have this pain in both...How long did your last?? I appreciate your help

Hello here...I'm doing good. I'm just exhausted and very uncomfortable with the gas pains. How are you doing?? I've been trying to walk as much as I can but I get so...tired. I'm still on clear liquids until tomorrow so..hopefully when I can get my protein in, I'll get some energy. Thanks for checking in, I appreciate it...especially since I was kinda having a poor me day.
