I've been gaining and loosing the same 5 lbs for 3 months. Was at the Dr last week, both agreed I was in the Green Zone and did not need a fill. But just to see what happens he gave me 1/2cc.

I've \been dropping weight like crazy, should be at my goal very, very soon.

I'm a little over 12 months banded.

I'm at goal after 10 months. Loosing weight can be addictive, though. I am disappointed when I get on the scale now and don't see a loss!

I am at goal, and in maintenance. I, also, visited my surgeon this week, I had gained a lb. he did not give me a fill, as I know what I need to do. Snacks have been my nemisis, again. I was banded on Oct. 30, 2009. I met goal around a year later, can't remember when! Karen

I achieved goal some time in the last three weeks (been on vacation with no scale). I've been waiting to visit this section until I reached goal.

Weight loss can become addictive, can't it, Sandra? Every time I've reached a goal, I've thought "Just five or ten pounds more and then I'll stop." I made higher goals originally because I knew statistically folks lose about half the weight they need to lose and I didn't want to be overly optomistic. Now I am only 3 pounds from my weight in college and 6 pounds from losing an even hundred pounds, so I think, "Why the heck not?" My husband is on my case about being hung up about numbers and losing too much weight, but... it is only 6 more pounds, hmm?

Well, I have 1.5 pounds to go and I've made the 100 pounds lost so far.. I have 15.5 to go to meet the wt the dr. set for me, but 25.5 to go for the wt I set for myself..

Not quite there, but almost.. Headed on vacation tomorrow for 3 weeks, scared to death I will not lose, but gain, but I will do everything in my power to stay on track. I haven't gone off track yet, just worried about excercise because we are doing a road trip across the states so will be in the car most of the time..

wish me luck!!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
