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

CONGRATS !

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.

WOW !! congrats !! how did you lose so fast ? i was banded dec 13th 2010..wow is all I can say * jaw is on the floor *

I started dieting 01/01 2011.

I weighed 328 Lbs...

My band was inflated 03/03/2011

What you see on the Ticker is what I lost so far.

I was banded on 8-11-11, starting 236lbs I am now 3 months later 202....so close to ONEderland!!! Down 34lbs

Started pre-op diet August 17th, lost 22 lbs. Had procedure on September 14th, lost 38, total for 60lbs! The best decision ever.

Banded on 5/26/2011 68 pounds lost! It's been very slow the past 7 weeks and I am getting a fill every 2 weeks-

WOW !! congrats !! how did you lose so fast ? i was banded dec 13th 2010..wow is all I can say * jaw is on the floor *

thanks so much!

I have no secret.... I just followed my Dr's orders to the letter. I track every morsal I put in my mouth using my phone ap (fatsecret) and stick to 1000 clories per day which because I am eating the right kind of food fills me up quite well. I didnt cheat at all and saw him monthly for weigh ins... Now he is weaning me to every 2 months which scares me a little since I still have 80 lbs to go.... but I will just keep doing what I am supposed to.

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!

I wish I could tell you a medical reason but the only thing I can think of is that I had so much weight to lose it just came off pretty rapidly. Now that I am with in 80 lbs of my goal its coming off about 1-2 lbs per week instead of 2-3.

I think everyone is different... I am sure you will have great sucess!

Thanks for the congrats... I appreciate it.

I was banded April 1, 2011 and I have lost 65.7 pounds. I made it to two-der-ville this morning!! 299.3 wahoo

Banded Oct 12th Twenty11 and including 2 weeks prior total 32lbs

Thanks for that info. Makes sense. But 1-2 lbs a week is awesome too . Good for you!
