I was banded on 4/22 in Elk City, Oklahoma by Dr. Henry Horillineo. I have not lost a whole lot of weight so far, 16 lbs, but am looking forward to finally being healthy and alot smaller than I am now. I am having problems finding Optifast to buy. I found my first case on Ebay, I dont like shopping on there. If anyone can help me with where to look for Optifast, I would be grateful!!:wink2:

16lbs is a great amout of weight to lose!! it hasn't even been a month..so look at it that way.

no help on the Optifast--don't use it.

Congrats on the weight loss!

16 lbs isn't a lot of weight to lose since April 22nd? Are you kidding me? I'd give my right arm to lose 16 pounds in two weeks. That's awesome.

They're right 16 lbs. is fantastic! You can buy Optifast from Bariatric Advantage.com. They have lots of stuff - vitamins, protein shooters, etc. Check them out.

Hi and welcome to LBT! I agree with everyone else. The 16 pounds is a great start!! Keep up the good work!
