3 months post op and right now I'm avg 4 pounds lost a week! I've only had 1 fill. I'm keeping my portions small as I can & choosing the right food with no cheating. (Except a little at Xmas). Walking on treadmill twice a day. Lost over 60 lbs including preop diet! People think the band deserves all the credit, like if you get the band you're automatically gonna lose weight. It's give me the help I needed to do this but I'm working hard & making good food choices. I'm thankful for the band but giving myself some credit for my hard work & sacrifice.

You're doing amazing! Congratulations!

You deserve some credit! You're doing all the right things, you're doing your part and the band is doing it's part. Congratulations on the amazing loss!

Amazing Titan! You sure do deserve it! It really isn't some magic thing, if you want to be successful with the band you better as hell work your ass! Keep doin whatcha doin!

I'm right there with you Titan. I too have 1 fill 3cc, no restriction yet.

My Dr came right out and told me it was all me and he also promised that the band you kick in soon to help me.

So yes, you deserve A LOT of credit! You're following the rules and winning.

Wishing continued success!

This post should be engraved and given out to every person with the courage to get the surgery. You have it in place and keep it going - look for new ways as you progress to challenge and expand the exercise portion : )

The Lapband didn't get you on that treadmill twice a day / you did : )

Hope in Your Future is Power in Your present!
