Was surprisingly easy. Numbed then 2 cc in my 10 cc band. Since surgery day on 12/21/12 went from 262 to 226 today. The PA was surprised. I told her it was simply will power at this point and using my fitness pal app. Wish I could keep up this rate of loss but know it will slow. Still have to start exercising as well.

Congrats! Was is your name on my fitness pal

Wow! That is inspiring. I am going to be banded on Mar 4 (start my pre-op) on Feb 18 and am only starting about 5 lbs less than you so I hope I have the same results!! Good luck on your journey and keep up the good work =)

Congratulations everyone for you are changing your life.

You are doing awesome with your weight loss. Congrats.

Wow! with a weight loss like that, I am surprised that the PA gave you a fill, my surgeon's office would not! You are doing fantastic, keep the weightloss up!

Iloveoctara on MFP. The OC in Indiana!

Thanks everyone! Also told her I learned from the lap band talk forum how to be successful so far!

You are doing so great!!! I have more than you to loose and I lost half of what you lost since surgery date. I lost about 20 since surgery 7 weeks ago (I'll know when i go next week), and 13 on my pre op. I LOVE watching the scale go down and the clothes getting more roomy.

It feels so good right?

I added you on MFP.
