Six months today

Hi all, so today is my six months anniversary and I'm down 67 lbs. My starting weight was 235 lbs and today i weigh 168. I have 3.5 cc in my band and my doctor thinks that i don't need any fill because I'm losing weight and I had some problems when I had 4 cc in my band. I'm very happy with my results and truly recommend this surgery to people who are willing to commit to the rules that come with it. It is not easy but easier than dieting, gaining, living overweight, and not being happy with yourself. I still would like to lose another 30 lbs to reach my goal. Good luck to everyone.

Wow You have really done well. It is nice to hear stories like your when so many other posts are about people not following the rules and having subsequent problems. 67 pounds is just terrific for only 6 months. That is more than my doctor expects us to lose. Way to go and make it to your goal. Keep posting.
