May 2011 Bandsters

I was banded May 19th this year and just wondering where everyone was in thier progress from that month? I started at 273, now at 249. Exercise almost everyday for about an hour and just had my second fill last friday July 8th. I think so far my weight loss is decent but I bet some of you have done better! I'd like to hear about it!

5.5.11 for me :) I've have a total of 7cc's in my 10cc band, 5 total fills. Haven't updated my ticker, but this morning was down to 206 woot woot from 239 starting point (245 was my highest)

Good times keep em' coming!

I was banded on May 9th and I am down a little over 50 pounds, I got my second fill on 7/21 and doing good so far... Good luck to everyone !

A-maz-ing!!! Super congrats!! How on earth did you do that? Continued great success!

Banded May 27th, start wt 207, preop diet 196, now 178. Had one fill, not sure how many cc's didn't ask and kinda don't want to know. But, I feel no restriction. My clothes are loose and I am loving it! I haven't been this weight in over 14 yrs...

May 4th for me! I did not have to do a pre surgery diet just day before; starting weight 225 now down 20.5lbs. I feel like it is going a little slow but am trying not to get discouraged. I have had 1 fill and am going for my 2nd next week. I excersie 4-5 times a week when not traveling. My biggest challenge is I travel 50% of the time and am constantly eating out. I have learned to eat mainly Protein and try to order kids meals but they are not the healthiest choices.

You all have inspired me to not get discouraged! I will up my excercise and start really counting calories and see what happens.

Hello May Bandsters

Everything going well for me so far. I gained weight on my pre op diet so even though I lost a lot it doesn't feel that way. I was banded on May 28th, didn't get my first fill until July 12th. I have a 4 cc band and I had 2cc's put in. I am feeling restriction and I am steadily loosing 2 pounds per week since fill. Although I can't eat all the things I like and I do get stuck a lot, I am happy with my restriction because I am loosing. I don't know if I need another fill for a while or ever if I keep up the 2 pounds per week.

May 3rd for me! Started pre-op diet at 261, and am now around 219! Haven't lost anything in over a month though, with 3 fills (my third being last week). Congrats to everyone!
