Okay, this is my first post so bare with me lol.... I was banded on 10-10-12 my starting weight was 320 as of this morning I am 263 everyone says 2 pounds a week is optimal but I'm losing more than that I'm eating what I want and I feel great so am I losing too quickly?

Missy... wow!!! Congratulations!!! My labs and overall health has improved so much just in the last 8 weeks it's mind boggling! ! My goal is to weigh 190#'s and just 3 months ago I thought that would be impossible now I'm hoping to see my goal weight on my 1 yr lapband anniversary! !!

Isn't it amazing.... It facinates me to watch every month how great we all are doing. It shows everyone on this forum that we are dedicated and commited to this. No matter what our differences are, or how we get there, we all have the same thing in common. That is the band!! We are a banded family, no body else can relate or understand what we go through better than us! I truly find comfort in knowing that I am not alone. I have been on this forum steadily for over a year and have learned so much from my banded peers before and after me. There is so much more to learn because our journey will forever continue as long as we have our band!

I have to agree about the blood clot I got one after surgery and my sign was leg pain. It kept getting worse got red and swollen.
