Only one fill, 14 weeks out, 31 # and feeling good...exercise is working, not hungry much...can see the difference...50# to go.:blink::bored: Eating mostly what I should but sometimes eating other things in moderation. Water aerobics helps a lot, treadmill is good but boring. Anyone else banded in March?

Hi there! I was banded just two weeks after you, I am 12 weeks out.

That is fantastic that you are doing well on one fill. I have had two and am anxiously awaiting my third which will be administered mid July. Hunger has been my constant companion these last 8 weeks or so!

I don't see a difference in myself, but others have commented. I have heard that it is harder for you to change your mental perception of yourself than it is to change your physical appearance. I just can't get out of the fat mindset.

I have been upping my exercise and have really noticed a difference. Normal daily activities just aren't as hard as they used to be. I am very happy about that. The greatest news of all is that I am off of all my diabetes medication! Whoo-hoo! My blood pressure is lower and I am doing really well! Great job band!....and me too!

I put on a swimsuit for the first time in 20 years...yikes! I made myself sign my little boys up for swimming lessons all summer long. Since my youngest is just 24 months I have to go in the Water with him. I am constantly wondering if people are staring at me. I know that I need to get over this, but how do you?

You take care and I am really excited that we are both doing well. Again, I am jealous about you not being hungry!

Howdy!

Banded March 2nd. Down 36 pounds since. Got my 3rd fill on Wednesday and am getting stuck on cottage cheese and yogurt. I think I need an unfill on Monday but I should lose a few pounds this weekend.

The treadmill isn't all that boring if you play music really loud.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
