I was banded on____since then I have lost____!

I was banded on 9-10-10 since then I have lost 21 pounds.

Total since the start of my journey is 45 pounds! I am excited and nervous as some have lost a lot more, BUT I am so thankful I don't care how fast or slow I just care it is happening!!!

My second fill is tomorrow. A bit nervous about eating after, but I can do this :D

Hi beautiful banders!

I was banded on Feb 9, 2011 to date I have lost 82 lbs! My BMI is 30.5. I have another 30 lbs that I want to lose by my 1 year anniversary :). The band has changed my life!

Cheers,

K

I was banded on 8 June 2011 since then I have lost 49lbs!

I was banded on October 10th, 2011. I lost 46 pounds during the doctor supervised dieting and pre-op diet. Since surgery, I've only lost 7 pounds. I'm hoping my first fill in a couple weeks starts to help. I find myself making poor choices sometimes and starting to fall into bad habits. It's hard right now though because I have NO restriction. I find myself starving by the time a meal time rolls around and even after I eat what's on my plate, I could eat more. I don't do it, but I know I could. Then, when bedtime comes, my stomach is growling so bad, I can't sleep. I really hope this phase passes soon.

I was banded on Aug 22,2011 and have lost a total of 14 /12 pounds so far

Slow and steady will win my personal race ---goal of 149lb by next Christmas

I was banded 10/19/11 and I have lost 14 lbs. since the band and 32 lbs. total since the pre-op and nutrition classes started 4/19/11.

I was banded 11 months ago on 12/9/2010 and have lost 136 lbs. I have 81 lbs to go. I have had 4 fills and I am in the green zone.

The biggest challenge now is that the weight is coming off more slowly.... so I just need to find some patience and take it 10 lbs at a time. :)

I have a question Floridays. Why has your weight loss slowed if you are in the green zone? I have no fills yet, first one is the 11th. So I am just curious about the process. And congrats on your fabulous weight loss! I love this forum. It's so inspiring!

Awesome! And you won't find it!

I was banded on October 12th and have lost 23 pounds , including 10 lbs during pre op liquids starting 9/28. :)
