<p>How much weight did you loose, starting at first day of surgery until your first fill?</p>

Hi I have my surgery this Fri. I hope i lose as well as most of you have.Right now i am just worried about making all the planes on time and getting to Mexico. I leave Indiana tomorrow morning. Can`t wait to get started. Donna

I lost 18lbs from date to 1st fill.

I was banded on June 18th 07 and will go for my first fill tomorrow...I've lost about 22 lbs. and I'm not feeling as full as quickly as I was right after the surgery..due to swelling around the band after surgery which has subsided by now, that's why I'm due for my fill now in order to tighten (or fill) the band. So don't get discouraged, keep up the good work.

I am only 8 days post-op and have lost maybe 5 lbs. I guess I AM SO ANXIOUS and want to start losing quicker...)

You're doing great...I GAINED 11 pounds the first week after surgery! Don't you know I was freaking!!!:omg::car:

WOO-HOO JUST FIGURED OUT HOW TO POST MY TICKER

:ranger:Hello! I just had Lapband surgery 7/24/07 and have lost 18 lbs. I started the high-protein supplements on 7/13/07 so it's been just over two weeks since I started this process. It is so exciting to be losing weight. I will have my first fill in 5 weeks. I feel restriction and am satisfied on the liquid supplements. Will be meeting with my doctor and dietician this coming Friday. Will start real food then, but I don't think I will be eating much since I feel restriction. Which is a very good thing. Wish everyone well.

I was banded on Nov 9th and have lost 29 pounds since surgery, I am feeling wonderful and no hunger no need for a fill YET!!

I was banded on 1 November and have lost 28 lbs... most of it prior to my first fill. I haven't lost any lately but hoping that will change during the next couple of weeks.
