Hi everyone, I was banded on 09/07/07. I really wanted to share my wight victory with all of you; I am now in ONEDERLAND.

I weighed in at 198.2 this morning. My beginning weight was 245.

That is a loss of more than 45 pounds :eek:

Wow!!! Congratulations!!! I can't wait to be where you are at.

Great job...I've got about 28 to go before I hit Onederland! I can't wait though!

Congratulations Teresa! Way to go.

I hope to join you in onederland in April. Please save me a spot.

Sue

Teresa,

It had been a long time since I had weighed in Onederland too. It IS a good feeling. Cheers for you.

your band sister,

edie

Teresa, that is wonderful news! I am doing the happy dance for you!!

How long did it take for you to lose your weight? My goal weight is 125-140.

so I have around 70 more pounds to go.

Teresa,

It had been a long time since I had weighed in Onederland too. It IS a good feeling. Cheers for you.

I love being a onelander. I'm currently at about 189. I can't wait for the 170's.

I am feeling the same as you caligal I am at 198.5 as of about 5 mins. ago. I started the journy at 226 in Dec. I am debating another fill. What size is your band and much fill do you have? I have a 10cc band with 3cc in I believe.

Good Morning!!

I have been banded for over a year (Feb 5)

I'm in ONEDERLAND as well,

I started at 250

Currently at 183

First few months were my most rapid loss, from there on it has been terribly slow.........if I average it out...about half a pound every 2 months

I'm fighting to hold on to my 183 (I've been as low as 180, for a day!!!)

I have about 50 more to go... my fill is at 4.4 in a 4cc band. So I think anything I get below 180 will be excellent!!!

I love my band

I never could keep the weight off without it.

Good luck to all my fellow 40's

I am a 10cc band and have 4.5cc in it. I am scheduled for another fill in mid-March.

I would get another fill. If it gets too tight the doctor can always take someout.

Do you feel like you are at your sweet spot?

Woooooooooooooooohooooooooooooo!!!!! 189!!! Can't wait to get there!
