hello all...i had my band in feb 2011. but it didnt help much....i had arthritis couldnt walk....then it slipped..started putting on...so converted band to sleeve in feb 2014. my knees were too bad so had knee transplant in oct 2014. now i can walk a lot...but weight is slowly increasing....my posture is better now...i look good...i read earlier that muscle weighs much more than fat...since I walk and exercise maybe my weight has increased? my weight is now 176 lbs

Edited August 4, 201511 yr by hopeful2 be slim

Technically fat and muscle weight the same. 1 lb of fat is the exact same weight as 1 lb of muscle. However; 1lb of muscle will look significantly smaller then fat.

oh is it....then i am putting on weight....have to be careful.
