Nice job.

Congrats...you look awesome!

You look amazing! So did you stick to low carb- exercise? did you lose it over one year or several years?

That's awful they wouldn't give you fills! I have never heard of such.

Congrats.

I am new on here and don't know how to reply to an individual. Yes, low carb, because my band won't let me eat breads. And I do work out five times a week. Yes, they wouldn't give me a fill a couple of times, and that was very frustrating. They told me they wanted me to do it on my own a little longer, blah blah, finally I went in a had a different guy that gave me my final fill and I lost the last 40lbs.

When you got the final fill- how was it? did you just know - that was it? do you PB a lot? I have had numerous fills and just never have gotten to that point yet.

You look great.

I'm almost four years out from being banded as well. I've gained back about 20 lbs. from where I was most comfortable, but surprisingly, I've heard from others that I look better with a little more meat on my bones. I'm working on losing at least 10 of those 20 lbs. That should make me feel better about where I am.

I was happy to ready your time frame as I am in my 7th month and still have only lost 10 lbs as you have said your Dr was slow to give you fills so is mine. I find when I exercise I am staving and then eat to fast and sometimes get stuck. It really is a learning tool to use over a long period of time.

My stats? I'm guessing what I weighed? I went from 265 size 22-20 to 155 size 8-10. It took a long time, because they wouldn't give me fills sometimes. Over a year.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
