WOWZA David! I hope I will be able to work as well with the band as you have!!! Congratulations and wishing your wife the best with her banding!

As my friend would say, "Holy CRAP, Batman!" That's amazing progress and it's great to hear you so happy with the band. Good luck with the running!

I hope your wife's surgery goes well, AND that she is not expecting the same incredible results. It would be a shame if she felt that anything less than 20+ lbs a month was a letdown. :cool:

I'd be screaming off the rooftop! That's awesome weight loss. Best wishes to you and your wife. Keep on rollin'.

I follow Dr. Grossbard's direction and the weight comes off easy. no soda of any kind, no bread or bread products, no Water before, during or after meals at least 30 mins. chew, chew, chew.... I eat all the normal food just a lot less....just started running.. my job I walk 2-3 miles aday, so that helps....

been heavy my whole life and look forward to have a bmi under 30.....

start this venture at 340lbs on the way down to 230-240 would make me very happy. had no clue the weight would come off that fast. I was looking to lose 100lbs in a year.

stick to it, hope for the best. as my doc states " You did not put it on over night so why would you expect to loss it over night?"

I hate men!!!!!!!

Just kidding. I am sure that has a lot to do with the weight loss!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

I am so happy for you!
