Original Post

From what I've been able to determine, factors that predict weight loss by banders may include drinking with meals, exercise, follow-up care (fills), use of diet drugs, race, and starting weight. I believe we can get a statistically valid analysis based on our collective experience. (Actually, your collective experience since I'm being banded next Monday)

We'll be looking at the first 12 months you were banded, or some number of months between 6 and 12 if you have not been banded for a full 12 months.

If you would like to participate, and have been banded for at least six months, then respond to this thread with:

1. Weight when banded (in pounds, if you'd rather not disclose then reply via private email to me)

2. Study duration (between 6 and 12 months)

3. Percentage of meals where you drank during the meal or within 1 hour after the meal

4. Average minutes per week you exercised during the study period

5. Number of fills you received during the study period

6. Regularly used diet drugs during your study period (yes/no)?

7. Race (race showed as a significant success factor in the initial FDA trials for lap-band surgery, leave blank if you object to testing this factor)

8. Weight loss during the study period (in pounds)

The reply format should be "315 pounds, 12 months, 25%, 60 minutes, 7 fills, no diet drugs, hispanic, 65 pounds lost".

Provided we get enough responses, I will perform the analysis and provide statistics and graphs showing how these factors correlate with weight loss among forum members.

    Not to be a pain, but can you really relate number of fills to weight loss if everyone doesn't have the same band, not everyone starts at the same fill amount, etc? It may not be a contributing factor?

    This is interesting reading the various results and ways that people have worked with and around the band.

    My results are 266 lbs.// 6 months since banded// 5% drinking within an hour after eating// no excercise// no fills// no diet drugs// caucasian// lost 87 lbs.
