I know there's already a post asking about the first year out - but this is anoymous, so more people might share this way.

The question is: How much did you lose in one year by your bandiversary, not counting the pre-op diet?

I know that before my surgery I was always looking for more information on how much people lost - so let's help the newbies and post our results here.

Annisversat date 01-21-10 lost 88lbs to date

I lost 70 pounds in a years time.

65 #, not counting pre-op. Waffled at this weight for several months but had gall bladder surgery in 12/09; the weight is coming off again

I just want to encourage everyone that I know someone who hardly lost anything her first year, but went on to lose almost 150 pounds over 3 years. It can be done, even for slow starters!

90 lbs in 1 year!

I lost 70 pounds in one year!:biggrin:

Not counting 2wk pre op I'd say around 65lbs

You guys are AMAZING! My first year anniversary is in a few days and I've only lost 31 pounds....

Aradia,

It is still 31 # you won't see again. And I don't know about you but I couldn't lose a # before, let alone keep it off. We all hit stumbling blocks- my health is complicating exercise so am just working it through- Most importantly, Keep on trying !!
