I was banded 9 months ago today' date=' and was at my all time high of 306 when I started my preop diet. I'm so happy to say that I'm finally in onderland - 199! No one is gonna burst my bubble today. I still have a long way to go - I'm proud to have come this far. And I've dine it with little to no restriction! Got a fill last night, and it seems like this one has finally made a difference for me. It's too soon to be sure, here's Hoping![/quote']

Hey Larry Gracious checking in at 180.... I've had better weeks.. but I'm still happy.

Still 215....:/

Off to vegas!! Wlsfa meet n greet

Checking in at 262.3!

Sorry Larry I forgot to check in on Sunday.

It wasn't such a good week in the weight loss dept. But it sure was a great week in the bahamas!! So I was 205 on Sunday.

Thats about a 4 pound gain....really thought I would have maintained. I tried so hard to be good on the cruise ship. But I guess that isn't too bad....could have been worse.

And as of today (wednesday) I'm back to 201 (the same weight I was the day before the cruise)!! So it really just cost me two weeks of weight loss.....It was worth it.

Met my may weight loss goal early 4 pound loss this week that's 40 9 weeks post surgery and 100 pound including pre operation 6 month diet . Feel like a new woman however another 100 to go 261 today x

Congratulations, Taysidebell! 100 lbs is amazing! Hey, could you do me a bit of a favor and sort some nice weather for when I come over next week for the Edinburgh 1/2 Marathon? Thanks! :-)

As for me, even though I'm not offically participating this month because I got a slight unfill, I have managed to lose two lbs for a weight of 130. My goal is to step on that plane to go to my 1/2 marathon at a weight of under 130. Hopefully I can pull it off!

Congratulations to everyone who has come into Onederland this month!!
