Hi there. I got banded in July. I was banded 11 days after you it seems. So far I am down 12 lbs that I know of but I only weigh when I go to the doctor. This keeps me from being half crazy as the scale move backwards and fowards. I did have a lower BMI (35) so my weight is coming off a little slower. Life with the band is truly different.

1. I no longer crave certain high carb starchy foods as I did before. (I do still have some cravings)

2. I no longer get up planning what I am going to put in my mouth.

3. I am working on walking at least 1 miles a day and get disappointed when I don't

4. My tummy is a little airy so I do take the opportunity to walk around at work each night and pretty much when ever I feel like it...no one seems to mind.

5. I love Quest bars now.

I was on July 15th - so pretty close. It is slow and steady for me. I started at 263 and am at 229 as of this Saturday. Still not in the green zone so I still struggle with controlling my intake. However, I think I am consistently losing because I stay between 900-1200 cal a day and do zumba 2-3x a week. I am finally starting to see it in my clothes. Hopefully my next fill will get me out of bandster hell!! I think I am close because i do feel full when I remember to eat slow and focus on Protein. Good Luck and let us know how your doing! PS. I must confess I had cheese pizza today.... extra zumba this week I guess...

Aug 13 here. I cannot have a fill until Oct 6. Slow progress but Soo happy. I can step out of my clothes without undoing them. Bought the fitbit and trying to get my steps in. I don't plan on being a marathon runner or gym bunny but sure hope to improve my health and fitness level

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
