I'm Banded Three Years and below goal!

Yesterday made three years I've been banded. I can't believe how quickly time has flown by. I am below goal, I don't count calories anymore, I do watch what I eat because I don't want to get stuck. Life below goal is AWESOME!!!!

    Same here...3 years coming up, don't worry about calories either...just learned to eat right....

    Below goal also...way y Dr. explains it...if you are truly living the new life with the band, and not dieting, then your body will self adjust to your new ways of eating - living...it will return to where it should be...NORMAL!

    Congratulations...enjoy your new life after the weight loss phase...it's indescribable, isn't it...

    Yes B-52 it is. It is really amazing how this band works. I'm like you, I can't overeat if I tried. If I forget and eat quickly, the band does what it's supposed to do. I'm still losing inches even though I'm not trying. Life is totally grand!!! Thank you.

    Three years for me on Dec 22nd. I hit the gym 3 times per week & have a good grip on portion control. I don't count calories, but indeed I do watch my carbs. I love me & feeling very blessed. 103lbs down. Holla!!!
