Hi All,

Just a quick note to say i have read many of your posts and wonder why I have not used them to gather more info.

I was banded April 2006 and have so far lost 18kg still 18 to go but with your support I know i am not alone out there.

Cheers

Ed:)

HI

Im from Hobart. Where are you from? I am soooooooooooo excited that I feel so good. My arthritis is better and my dog is even benefiting from walking every night.

Need to be careful with what I eat as my kids are thinking that as soon as i put something in my mouth I am going to throw up.

Glad to be talking to others. I hope we can share ideas and milestones.

I luv the pictures and scale lines people have put at the end of their names>. Haven't figured out how to do that yet.

Cheers

Ed

      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!!

      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?
