At three months i had lost about 35 pounds. I did not have to do a pre-op diet so it was all after banding. I am at 43 pounds lost now. It is slowing down but still coming off. I love this band. Donna

Argh! I so happy for all of you who are really pulling it off, but pea-green with envy!

Yesterday was three months for me and I have lost 23 lbs. (The rest was lost pre-op). My body is just fighting me, fighting me, fighting me!!! It's SO aggravating!

It was 3 months for me last Tuesday. Sure wish I had the weight loss others have had, but after years of obesity I will take what I can get. I do not exercise either and I know that would help a lot. I am taking it 10 pounds at a time and sure wish I could break the "4" for 40 now. Getting closer.

Tomorrow is the three month mark since the start of my pre-op diet, and I've lost about 95 pounds so far. Before you get too excited you should realize that I still want to lose about the same as a lot of your starting weights! :omg:

I haven't had a fill yet since my progress has been steady and I haven't really been hungry (I have seen my doctor, though, and they agreed no fill for now). I still get full on 3/4 cup or so of food. The only thing that has given me problems so far is fresh veggies -- don't think I chewed them well enough. The only thing I've given up 100% is carbonated beverages, though I try to limit my sweets to 1 or 2 special occasions a week.

I can already feel a big difference in that it's easier to move around and such, and I've lost 2 pants sizes, but I still don't see it in the mirror all that much.

The Band works if you do your part!

35 lbs so far ( 3rd month). I have my 3rd fill 12/4 and I hope I've lost at least 5-10 more lbs. The 2nd fill didn't give me any restriction I guess cause I had lost 6lbs and the dr thought I was doing good. I am going to tell him that I am always hungry, but I'm trying hard to eat (trying, but not always) right and I exercise 5 days a wk.

I lost 50 pounds in 3.5 months. My doctor said that was very rare though. He said they consider losing 50 pounds in one year a success. So even though some of us have lost substantially more, if you go by what he said, you would be on track if you have only lost 12.5 pounds. I don't think most people (or anyone) would be happy with that, but just food for thought.

princesst: wow! 71lbs! congratulations! whats your exercise routine like? what was your starting weight? how tall are you?

sorry for the barrage of questions. were about the same age (im 26) and i just want to compare, i guess?

thanks in advance!

Dave01 adn KarenG. - congratulations! such an inspiration! :)

Hello!

I started out weighing 298.2lbs and I am currently 223.0lbs (75.2lbs as of today). I am 27 years old and 5'4". I have maybe worked out once or twice a week during these past 3 months, but have now committed my self to working out about 4-5 days a week. I think most of my success is contributed to the fact that I watch my carbs-I don't eat any bread, Pasta, or rice. I also measure all of my food before I eat it. It takes me 20-30 minutes to eat my 3oz meal.

It is so inspiring to see everyone do so well!!

Princesst

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
