Hey NOV Bandsters. It's been a while, how r u?

Just wanted to see how everyone is doing. I was banded on November 7th and have not been here in a while with all the Holiday stuff going on and I went to mexico for about 10 days on vacation. I managed not to gain any weight but gained about 3 lbs when I came back. Holidays are the worst I have been eating a lil bit of everything. I had lost a total of 36 lbs and then gained back 3. Not too bad I guess. I am scheduled for my 1st fill on Jan 4th and I hope this will boost my weight loss. I am so excited with the 33 lbs I have lost. I am just checking in and want to know how everyone is doing whether it be success or hard times please reply and fill us on on how you are doing with you band. Overall I love my band it has helped me control my eating tremendously and a lil exercise does not hurst of course. I hope all of you guys are doing well and I can't wait to hear from you. Have a Happy New Year and I hope you succeed and accomplish all your new years resolutions.

I was banded on November 9th and I guess I am a slow loser because I have only lost 19 lbs post op but I lost 17 pre op so that is 36 total but I am doing well and very hopeful. I too am getting a fill On Jan 6. Hopefully the weight loss will speed up. Very happy I chose the Lap Band.

Hi, I'm wondering where everyone went! I was banded Nov 28, and so far I'm down 23 lbs, pre and post op. I usually gain weight over the holidays so I am pretty happy. I get my first fill in 2 weeks. This sight helps me remain focused on what I am eating and doing since I'm banded and I really appreciate it.

I was banded on Nov. 29 and have lost 37 pounds (15 pre-op). I feel great - lots of energy. The only days I was hungry was Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. I think that was because of all the food around. I am getting my first fill on Jan. 16.
