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?

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
