I had a single incision lap band procedure. I thought I had another infection, which left me out of commission for two weeks prior, so I went to the Doctor. GOOD NEWS>>>> I didn't and the Doctors scale said 199. I have officially made it there this afternoon. Now I know how finiky weight can be and that can go up, but I was so thrilled to land there today. My goal was to get there before my Birthday January , 2010.

I don't have much restriction so much of my weight loss is the gym five days a week, pushing myself on the eliptical and really working hard. I am watching my portions and trying to keep fluids up. I feel hungry sometimes but not too often.

I am down 35lbs since starting this proces,

I am down 18lbs since surgery November 2, 2010.

I can not say how wonderful it is. Just waiting for the inches to start melting off.

Congratulations!

Congrats, I'm there with you. We made it!
