How Are You All Doing Now?? Updates?

now that some of you are almost 6 weeks out how are you all doing?? I'm getting banding March6h and worried about what to eat and how will I know when I'm full, etc.. I'm just wondering how the newly but not too new banded people are doing? Does it all just "click" that this is not the right size, or can't eat this too much, etc?

How much have you all lost so far and how is adjusting to new foods going? also what have you found to be a life saver so far? THanks all!

7 mo out the last 5 lbs have been very hard to lose, I hit the gym least 4 x a week and eat about 1000 cals, a day- at 4.2ccs I deterred my fill till Sept because of lack of $$. I do feel restriction many times, but can eat pretty well. I think my body has gotten happy right where it is,,, and my knees are starting to crakle n pop so worried now that I may hurt myself trying to increase my exercise.. I did change the diet around and types of exercise to more weight training, but now what?? I'll take any suggestions.

Banded 12/19/11. Had a fill a week ago and I now starting to see scale go down again. It stalled for a couple months. Starting weight was 256 lbs. I was stuck between 197-203 from May til last week. Now have 8cc in my band. Started feeling real restriction for first time. Scale read 190.5 yesturday- briefly. I took a picture of it so pleased. Read 194 today- this is why we need to hide the scale. Started with 22/24 Lane Bryant jeans- now in a 12! too small for Lane Bryant. Took my smaller butt to Victoria Secerts last month- down from 42 DDD to 38DD, which isa bit big now. keep up the good work evveryone!
