It has been two years since my surgery. I have lost 64 lbs. so far and have 25 yet to go. I thanks God for keeping me in good health. I hope all of the Mayo 2009 bandsters are doing well.

Its been 2 yrs for me too and i have lost about the same amount . I figure I should have lost more but have not been very good on my dieting . I say everyday i will do better but not yet. still trying and still exercising. . congatulations on your weight loss

The first 18 months were a dream! I've had some problems the past several months, but nothing that is insurmountable in my mind.

I need to fix my ticker - I was at that for about 3 minutes but mostly I was hovering around 185. I'm now at 205 but I'm not losing hope - getting back on track.

I'm still very happy to have 80+ pounds off and will reach my goal!

I cannot believe it will be 3 years this May. I have lost 70 pounds and am pretty much happy with my weight. The last 10 pounds have been slow..Now just to tone up..My most recent problem has been a severe headache when I eat..I think this is what has helped me lose the last 10 pounds. Anyone else have this problem...Also what do people think of having the band out when you have been at goal for a year or so. I certainly have changed my eating habits

Thanks for the updates! really appreciate them.

I can't believe it's been FOUR years now! Are there any other Banditos still here on LBT? I'm down 80 pounds from my pre-surgery highest weight. It's been slow, steady progress with stalls along the way but no major backslides. I'm still aiming for 150, but will settle for 160. I plan to look into getting a tummy tuck when I arrive at 175.

I'm trying to get plugged back in here at LBT and would love to hear from you!

Best wishes,

Christy
