I have had my band since the 14 and since Jan 4, the day I started my preop, I have lost 19 pounds! Keep in mind...I have been over weight for as long as I remember. And it has been over 5 years since I have lost 19 pounds. Just amazing! I, for the first time in my life can picture what it will be like to be "normal" sized. The things that I will be able to do as I get closer to my goal are more of a reality. Being thin (or atleast thinner) is GOING to be reality. I go to my doctor for my first post op appointment tomorrow and I cant wait! I just know that if i follow my doctors instructions I cant help but succeed. I have all of the LBT friends support and tips to help me along the way. I am just feeling very blessed today and amazed at the process so far. :thumbup:

I am happy for you. You are doing great and have an awsome attitude! Keep up the good work.

Thats great! Congrats on getting the weight off.

Good for you! I think a positive attitude is everything! I've done very well with mine... had it done Nov 2nd and have lost 60 lbs including pre-surgery diet. I have NEVER lost that much on any program. I too am loving it!! Keep up the good work!
