Hi. I got banded a little over 2 months and I'm at 180 although it's been a slow weightloss I'm really happy with it. Hang in there. I think for people who have less to loose the weightloss is slower

Got my band on Wed.. have had alot of pain. The doctor and clinic were amazing. The doctor also repaired a hernia. I keep having what feels like a spasms that start at my sternum and radiate through my chest.. Can't tell if I am hungry, in pain from surgery or ate too much. Is this common?

I was banded at 205lbs in April 17,2014. Most of my family thinks I'm crazy because I chose the band to loose 75lbs but none of them have had to deal with the weight fluctuations like I have! My insurance covered my surgery with a BMI of 36 because I have a weight related disease. I have lost 30lbs so far and don't regret my band at all. It's the weight loss pace I wanted and I'm glad it's working for me. I lost 90lbs 2 years ago but gained it al back during pregnancy. So more than anything I hope I can keep weight off with the band:)

I was banded on February 18 2014 weighing 196lbs today I'm at 172lbs my weight loss has been slow and still struggling to see if I'm really in the green zone....don't believe so. I have 5 cc in a 11 cc band. Just got to the 5 cc in June so dr. Is giving it time and I go back in sept. To see if I need a another fill. So overall I say it's hard and will probably be at a slower rate since ur starting bmi was lower. Good luck to you I hope you have success!!!
