I'm a Dec bandster as well. Sounds like you're really off to a great start.

For me: 12/16 was surgery date. 12/30 was 1st follow up and I lost 8 lbs! I don't receive my first fill till 6 weeks out 1/27 :(.

I was banded on 12/27 I don't have my first follow up til 1/14. My daughters had doctor appointments today so I decided to weigh myself and I'm done about 9 lbs. My heaviest weight was 284 surgery day I was 255 and today I'm 246. I'm a little disappointed I thought I would lose more especially after being in the hospital for 4 days with little to drink. But I guess just sitting or laying around isn't going to do much.

Congrats on the weight loss Millie!

Very good!

I was banded 12/19/13, I've lost 20 lbs so far just on the pre-op and post-op diet; in addition, I am walking 1 mile a day. Post-op visit with my surgeon today 1/7/14 and first-fill will be 1/17/14. So far so good, just tired of mushie foods.

Good luck to all! Happy 2014.

Banded 12/16. Down 21 lbs. first fill is 1/13. Tonight I ate quiche. Crust free. I thought I would be ok bc it's egg. It sat on my stomach like a brick. Tonight was the first time I have had an issues with something I ate. Actually had mild stomach pain. Never eating that again.

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
