August 15 marks 1 year since my band! 94 lbs down, hoping to hit the 100 mark by the anniversary, and 130 by my wedding in November! Best decision I've ever made!

Awesome work!!! What were your keys to success? I have similar goals to you.

You look awesome! Congrats!

It's been a tough year. From August to January I didn't lose anything! So it's really only been about 7 months of weight loss. For me, the most success I have had has been because I have been filled each month so far. I only do small increments, .1 cc each fill. The first week and a half to two weeks after my fills I'm extremely constricted, even though you're only supposed to be on liquids for a few days, I find myself only being able to tolerate liquids in that timeframe. The second two weeks of the month, it's easier for me and I can get down some soft fishes and other things. Once I am down the hundred pounds, my doctor and i discussed only being filled every other month, to lose the rest of what I'm hoping to. Just keep telling myself, it's a marathon, not a sprint LOL

Do you feel like you are in the green zone yet?

As ironic as it sounds, I'm actually in the red zone.i had a fill last Friday, and I don't tolerate them so well initially. But then in about 2 weeks I'd say I'm green, and then 2-3 weeks from then, I find myself hungry all of the time and needing a fill. So I change throughout the month

Interesting. And are you on an exercise plan? Sorry if I'm giving you 20 questions. Just so inspired by your progress!

Please don't apologize, ask away! I'm actually not doing any exercising right now, but I really need to start. Unfortunately back in April I was in a pretty bad car accident and I broke my wrist and needed surgery to fix it. So I wasn't allowed to do much exercise! I was finally just cleared by the doc, so I'm gonna start using the gym (lol, soon claim!)
