I was just banded on 3-21-13. I lost 18lbs on my own from Jan- March and have lost 12 lbs since surgery. No weight loss for 2 weeks but my body is changing! Dont mind the funny face on last pic!

GREAT idea to do the interim pictures! The changes are clear, and it's great for motivation. You're definitely shrinking :)

Thanks everyone! I cant wait to see more pics posted! I love looking at everyones pics!

It is so bizarre! When I had lost just the 18, my clothes still fit. With this 12...my body has changed shape so fast and clothes no longer fit! Went from 22 to allllllmost an 18! Can get em on and ALMOST buttoned and zipped!

Wow you are doing great! I wish I would have taken pics like you are doing. I was also banded 3/21/13. I'm down around 10 pounds but I'm struggling to pay attention to my true hunger vs my need to munch. Today is much better that Mon/Tues/Wed. I'm not hungry today and feel a renewed determination to succeed even in this pre-filled phase.

Keep in touch! You inspire me to keep it going strong since we were banded the same day!

Continued success!!!!

You and I are in the same boat! I was banded 3/20 and have gone from a 22 to a tight tight 18! You are doing great! What an excellent idea to take pictures more frequently and put them side by side! Are you taking measurements too?

Keep in touch "bandmates"!!!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
