I went in for my fourth and hopefully final fill. I think this one is it. I have already lost 2 lbs since the fill on Yesterday. I know it is because I am on liquids. I am now at about 44 lbs gone. I love this band. I am glad everyone is doing great!

I for some reason am not doing well. I just had another fill and am filled up to 6cc in my 10 cc band.

I have lost about 30 pounds. I am really upset about it. I have been eating about 1000 calories and am exercising now. ao I hope this will kick it into gear..

Other wise i am going to crawl under a boulder. Not a rock I woul not fit.

I was banded on August 23rd. I have so fave lost 36 pounds, but I've only just had a fill giving me restriction, so I'm looking forward to some serious weight loss over the next few weeks. :)

Hi, I was banded on August 5th and have lost 22 kg. I've been at a bit of a stand still weight wise for the last 6 weeks, so, as of today, am committing to walking every day. I've had 4 fills and now have about 5ml in a 10 ml band. My short term goal is to get to 90 kg by May (that's 8 kg - not impossible) and then I'm going for a visit home, to surprise my family and hubby's, most of whom do not know I have done this.

Thanks, yes I went through a difficult time in the beginning. Now I am totally opposite, I hate to eat and have to FORCE myself to do it. LOL

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
