JULY 2010 BANDSTER!!! ANYBODY WANT TO CHECK IN???



Recommended Posts

I am curious to hear how all of the July 2010 Bandsters are doing! So far so good for me although I have hit a plateau and not lost anything for the last month and a half, I have maintained and not gained anything back.

I had a fill early January and ended up being WAY too tight, had .3 cc's removed and felt much better but had lost 11 lbs in 6 days. I have managed to keep even that off which puts me at 55 lbs lost.

So for now I am trying to figure out how to get the weight dropping again. I have an appointment for a fill tomorrow and maybe this will be what I need to get moving again.

So that is it for me for now... Would anyone else like to share? :D

Glad you started this topic. Ive been curious too where everyones progress was that was banded in July. I feel like my weightless is going pretty slow, but I am thrilled that I have lost. I was banded on July 23rd. I weighed 255 and am down to 210 so I've lost about 45 lbs. I'm averaging about a pound a week. Two months after my initial surgery I did have to have another surgery because my port flipped. I kinda wonder if that had an effect on my weightloss. Im really needing to get back in gear. This past month has been hectic and I've really slacked off on my diet and exercise. But today is a new day! Congrats on your weightloss. Would love to hear from some other July Bandsters as well.

Banded July 9th. Am down 67 lbs. 18 more until goal. Weightloss has slowed down considerably though so I'm aiming to be at goal by my "bandiversary" Feb has been a really slow weightloss month for me and my frustration is setting in a bit.

Thanks for responding everyone!! I guess the closer you get to goal the slower the weight comes off. I was banded July 14 and I do have to admit that my exercise habits have slacked off considerably and it is hard to get back in the groove! :(

Congrats to us all on our accomplishments! I have another 35 to goal and I am praying that I can have it off by the summer :D

Would love to hear from some others!! It is encouraging to hear the success stories and maybe we can be a motivator for those that are struggling.

Hello

I was banded July 31st in Belgium and to date have lost 76 pounds and nearly 65 inches.

Very happy and have 25 pounds to go to my 101 pound loss. Have lost every week which has been very good and I know unusual.

Please see this link if you are interested in my story: http://www.lapbanduk.org/t29-mummiesbb-journal

Well done to everyone a loss is a loss and it's not going to come back which is such a positive thought!

Good luck for the rest of your journey.

All the best

Claire

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
