Attention anyone banded in Feb.

What is your total loss so far?

Amber banded 2-22 lost 4lbs so far.

I was banded 2/11/08 and I have lost 21lbs. :thumbup:

I have lost 19 pounds first week but seem like it has slowed down. I am still on liquid phase. Anyone have this happening. It seems as little is going in it would still be coming off.:thumbup:

Just starting my journey; banded 2/28/08 by Dr. John Bagnato in Albany, Georgia

Weight Loss Tickers

8 lbs the week before surgery and 11 lbs in the past 2 weeks since surgery.

Just started. banded 2/26 by Dr Ortiz.. gained 6 lbs since surgery..

I was banded Feb. 12th and total I've lost about 16 pounds since before surgery. I won't get a fill until the end of March, so I'm eating more. Well, I'm eating alot smaller amounts than before but I've noticed I can eat more times in the day than before. It's quite frustrating!

Banded on 2/15 and lost 14 pounds

Banded on 2/4/08. I have lost a total of 20 lbs since surgery. Have been gaining and loosing the same 3 lbs since mushies/solid foods. But at least I have not gained and kept my loss at 20 lbs.

Trying to maintain until 1st fill March 19.

My doctor is very conservative and does not do fills sooner than 8 weeks, so my first fill won't be until the first week of April.

Hello All, I got my band on 2-29-08 in San Antonio, Tx by Dr. Gonzales. I can say that I am doing really good. I thought that it was going to be worst than it has been. I am getting over this clear liquid diet, but I vow to hang in there because I did not do this just to got back to old habits. I have been really craving toast with butter and jelly, but I refuse to give in. I am really thankful that I found this site and all of the information that you all have provided has been awsome. So far I have lose 5lbs since being banded....

Banded 2/22/08 and lost 11lbs so far.

Hi!

I was banded on February 15. According to my bathroom scales I am down 18 pounds since surgery. I won't update the ticker until I see the doctor again.

I was banded 2-08-08 and counting my 3 day pre-op diet I'm down 27 pounds. (I think the pre-op diet helped me lose about 5 pounds, I'm not sure.) It slowed down at about 25 pounds down and goes up and down a pound here and there. I'm so grateful for such quick loss. I get my first fill this week, on 3-06-08.

Banded 2/26, total of 26 lbs lost, 11 lbs since surgery!!

My doctor is very conservative and does not do fills sooner than 8 weeks, so my first fill won't be until the first week of April.

And I was throwing myself a pity party because my doc made me wait 6 1/2 weeks after surgery to get my 1st fill....boy...I am sorry you have to wait until April....but we are in this together!

:rolleyes2:
