I'm a new bandster too, so my BMI has only moved one category (from morbidly obese to severely obese)

Ohhhhh. She is asking for BMI before banding. I was right at 40, just below.

(but that is post surgery........lowest bmi is under 25. At 20-25 years was still around 150 lbs, under 25 at about 130.)

No...POST-banding. After banding.

i've gone from 44 to 38 point something in almost 4 months i am sooo happy with me results so far.

These polls are fun, but again, we're not talking about a representative sample of bandsters here. I'd venture to say that 95% of the people who might vote on this poll are works in progress. :)

Good point. I should have made it for people who were, say...two years post-op or more.

Should I delete this and start over?

I went from 48.9 (morbidly obese) to 32.3 (obese) in 17 months.

After my unbanding I'm going in the wrong direction again.... :)
