I went to my specialist today...

I have not seen my Endocrinologist in 90 days.

When I first seen him I weighed 305Lbs. (THE NURSE SHOULD ME ON PAPER), Today I weighed 271Lbs... "YES !"

She was shocked, and I to was surprised, that's a little more then 11Lbs. a month. That's not bad at all !

She thought it was do to my Thyroid Medicine, and I had to break her Heart and say "NO, I HAD MY LAPBAND FILLED.) Ogh......

I told her it's still a good thing ! It's a loss. She agreed.

So for all the Newbies, and non believers this is for you. Consistency is the key...

I stay between 800-1200 calories a day, 60-80G of Protein a day, I never weigh myself at home, only on a Dr.'s scale, Drink my MUSCLE MILK LITE, and I walk around the block every other day. I record all my stuff on myfitnesspal.com that's it.

and it is nice and slowly coming off.

So my Turtle is slowly moving. I can't wait to see it next year , or myself . :party:

Nice Job !

Hey Shirley. Good to see you're on track! I just popped over from the sleeve board to check up on you guys! I haven't had surgery yet but am approved and will be getting my date this week.

I hope you keep on with the good work and keep on feeling great!!

Congratulations on your approval ! i had know idea that you were changing over?

I wish only the best in Good Health...

Let us know when you get your date set (IN STONE !)

I am also on there site, I didn't know if I would have this band fixed,or go to the sleeve at one point !

Turned out the Band was just deflated.

If Medicare ever makes it covered on their Ins. I might look into that..

Good Luck on your Journey.

Shirley.
