2 Month Band-Iversary....happy With Where I Am At.

When I set my first long term goal for my weight loss...my goal was 75 lbs in my first year...that would mean I would have to average about 6 pounds a month. Many people lose a chunk in the beginning and then slow down...but something told me I would be one of those who were slow going from the start.

Well of the 35lbs total that I have lost...21 has been since surgery..so I am above the average amount I need to lose to be on goal. This makes me very happy. This is slower than most as i said...but its faster than I have ever done or could have ever done on my own. If I lost the 6 lbs a month from here on out..that will put me at 80 lbs by my 1 year mark....AMAZING!

How many of you have been banded a year or more and how much did you lose? was it the amount you thought it would be?
