Hi Everyone-

It has been on my mind lately to start a new post as a positive, motivational, and inspiring thread. I have noticed several threads lately where those considering surgery are asking if it is 'possible' to lose 100 pounds with the band. My answer to that is...Yes, it definitely is. Many say it is not realistic. But I have watched the amazing progress of LBT members on the board, and believe it is not only realistic, it is happening to many of our LBT members all around us. And for those that aren't quite there yet, many members are extremely close. As time goes by with lapband increasing in popularity and the number of LBT members growing everyday, I believe the list is only going to increase by leaps and bounds.

Any and all weight loss is a huge accomplishment for us all. While I realize that many members don't need to lose 100 pounds or more, many do. And for those who do, it offers not only motivation to see that other bandsters have done it...but most importantly it offers the hope that it can be done with the band!

This will be a running thread to offer positive motivation, inspiration, hope, and encouragement. Please PM me or post here to have your name added to the growing list when you hit 100 pounds lost, or if you want your amount lost updated. Congratulations to everyone on any and all weight loss!

Wow Paul! Your weight loss is just awesome! Welcome to the 100 Pound Club!

We have lost over 100lbs each. I have lost 165lbs and Deb has lost 135lbs. We lost 100lbs before surgery and around 200 since surgery. I am so glad to read your stories and hope to see many others. Some people don't need to loss 100lbs, but you are still winners. I had not been on the sight for a while and I really enjoy this thread.

Congrats to all in with your 100 plus weight loss. It gives me such hope with my coming tool The Lap Band for weight loss to be joining you all next year at this time....

Wow Frank!! That is incredible weight loss for the two of you. What a difference that must make in your relationship. Congratulations on your amazing success, and welcome to the LBT 100 pound club. I have added your stats to the list!!

You can add me too. 138lb down.
