I was banded on 3/19/2012.I've Lossed 22 pounds and I am a size 16. I went before surgery and bought size 14. They fit!! They are snug, but they fit!! Omg! Went back to work and everyone is saying how great I look. ( I shared with no coworkers ). Yea its bandster hell bit staying with it is so worth it.

woot, woot, good for you! I always love to buy the next size down and try them on til they fit!

Doesn't it feel great!? It really does make it all worth it! .....happy for you!

I was banded on the 19th also, down 20 lbs. Congrats on your victory. I haven't change pants size yet, hopefully tha will be next for me.

Congrats! Please share your secret. I was banded on the 20th too and I'm down 11-12 pounds. I barely eat so I don't know what else I can do to aid the weight loss.

I am in the same boat as you. I am 9lb down since surgery. I keep chalking it up to the fact I lost a lot in the few weeks prior to surgery. I know the time will come, so I am diligent in recording what I eat and trying to get my protein/water in. I am looking forward to getting back to exercise too.

you're going to be a "hot mama !!!" way to go and congrats ! It's fun to try on clothes that used to be too tight and now are too loose isn't it ?? last night i tried on 4 pairs of pants and was grabbing a HUGE HANDFUL of fabric on either hip ! woo hoo ! Great job and keep it up !

It will come off in due time! My first month I was down 13 and I was discouraged seeing all these people losing 20 -25 pounds in the first month.
