Hello every1, I was banded on July 17 and I had only lost 30 pounds...To me, that was slow but to others it was like a miracle! I was starting to look really good in clothes.

But now, I lost the good feeling. The holidays screwed me ova! Or should I jus say I screwed myself :thumbup: but anyways, Im determined to get right back on track! And I wanted to share my 1 min weight loss pics with every1 because maybe it will motivate some...And I really need some motivation too so if any1 has helpful advice, pics, or videos, please share them with others. Thanks alot :)

Thanks Hummingbird! That's 1 of the things that's keeping me real motivated! Just thinking about how cute I'm going to look in sexy clothing! My bf is already jealous so just imagine when more eyes on me :thumbup: lol

thanks Mimi...I'm at 6.7cc Im hoping to lose weight quickly, Im not even hungry anymore. All of a sudden, I have no appetite and I can't finish the rest of my food...Is this the sweet spot? I hope so and I hope it stays like this forever! lol

I really needed this today. I am 10 days post-op, nausea and most of the pain has passed and now I AM READY TO EAT!!!! I'm physically and mentally hungry and so help me, I don't know how much longer I can take shakes, sugar free pudding and broth! Seeing your progress over time does help! What confidence you obviously have and man, oh, man, I hope someday I can wear something like that animal print mini you've got on! MEEEEE-OW! Very sexy!

I had that problem as well..I kept on drinkin soda only because I knew nothing would happen. I mean, its going to mess up the band if we continue to drink it but while Im drinking it, nothing happens at the moment. Maybe that's something we both can start to change. As with excersizing, I dont really like doing it. But I find that when I go to the gym and take a class, it makes me feel better.

I totally understand what you are going through. I remember when I was post op I was in ALOT of pain so I didnt really care about eating. It wasn until the pain was gone, I would want to eat and I mean EAT!..Your going to be in "bandster hell" and honestly the only way you can get through this is with will power and determination. And I'm glad my video helped! Just keep thinking about the mini animal print dress that you will be wearing real soon! Good luck :confused:

I can give you an alternative to soda. Fill a 2 qt. pitcher with VERY HOT Water. Hang 4 reg. size Lipton tea bags in it and let it seep for a couple hours. Then add 5 sweet n low packets. Fill the rest of the pitcher with ice ........yum.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
