I haven't heard much from April Bandsters. Would love to hear from you all!

I have lost a total of 73 pounds (51 since surgery day). I am off some meds and down from size 22 to 14 petite. I feel great! Weight loss has slowed down but still going the right direction. Still love my band. :)

Hi all. I'm glad to hear you both are well. I've been doing well and am happy about my progress. I'm getting nervous about the holidays coming up and I'm still trying to keep my expectations in check.

As always, thanks for all of the support these last 6 months.

Doing well, 62lbs total. I have stalled out pretty good. I understand why and am working on it. Been hitting the gym pretty regular and pretty hard. I enjoy being me! My wife asked last night what happened to her husband. I told her, he got fat, I am giving you back the guy you married! Good to hear from you all and look forward to hearing from the rest. Rock On, Waynooo

Hey All!

I have lost 43lbs. This past month I have finally gotten to my "sweet spot" and and I can really tell a difference in the way and amount I eat. This is the most weight I have lost in my life. My last weight loss attempt, three years ago, it took me a YEAR on weight watchers to lose 30lbs and I gained that all back + an extra 40lbs after I stopped going. I am so excited for this weight loss to stay off!

You are all doing great! I have lost way more than I thought I would have at this point, and I am thrilled about it! Headed to Key West for New Year's and am hoping to be at 170 by then (90 pounds down!!!) and it is actually a realistic goal at this point!

I feel happier than I have in years...more than the weight I've lost, it's the "weight on my shoulders" of being self-conscious and uncomfortable all the time that I am most happy to have lost.

Keep up the good work!

I have not lost much in the last month - only 2 pounds, but I got some wonderful feedback this week. One of my employees told another that when I lost 73 pounds she noticed I lost 73 pounds of attitude too - I am so much better to work for! That makes me really happy!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
