Banded July 5th Loss 53 lbs Had 4 fills Currently at 8.0 cc in a 14 cc band I'm feeling like I'm heading toward the green zone . I'm feeling good abt it.. This has been one of the biggest decisions in my life to have this surgery and it's changed my life' date=' relationship, increased my confidence and made my haters stand out (lol)....[/quote']. WTG!!! I'm right there with you! Keep it up :)

So nice to see good results.......had my 4th fill today. Sitting at 5.5cc. Down 63 lbs since surgery on July 16th. My life has turned around so much these last 3 months, I love it and never going back to what it was.

This page has certainly gone cold. How is everyone doing?

Well ... I am down 40 lbs not gaining but losing slowwwwwwly! Got a fill today and I think I am real close to green!

Down 89 pounds! I finally got a fill last Tuesday that I think put me in the green. How is everyone else??

Only down 40 lbs but feeling good going for a fill in 2 weeks i think i need one . Congrats to everyone keep up the good work

I'm a month after y'all. I love how we all KNOW our surgery dates. I call it my REBIRTH date! I'm finally in the GREEN. Shocking to see how such a little amount of food satisfies me. Shocking to see that I do 65 mins of cardio, six times a week. Shocking that I'm now in regular sized clothes.

I don't know why it's that shocking...... This is what a lap band does for a person that works with it to lose weight !!!!!

I've lost 60#. haven't had a fill since dec. don't know if this is the "green" zone or not. I just know that I feel great, continue to lose (slowly), and I can live with this.

My surgery was on 7/18/13. I think I have about 3 cc's in my band right now, and I'm down 72.5 pounds. I go in for my monthly visit today, but I doubt if I'll get a fill. I think I'm probably in the green zone. I can't eat certain things or eat very fast or I get stuck. I know people have lost much faster than I am, but I can definitely live with this rate. People are finally starting to notice! :)

Hello everyone, i was banded 7/31/13. I wanted to check to see how all was doing. We are not far from our year anniversary!! My weight loss has slowed down and has stayed the same for the past month or so. Can anyone relate any suggestions for me?
