Hello, My name is Erin I had banding done dec of 2007. I lost 20 pounds in post op and then i have lost about 60 pounds in less than 5 mos. i was 330pds and 5'10''. I was maxing a 28/30 and i am now not. I love the band some days are harder than other but it has it's rewards. The weight loss has slowed down but i am getting back on track and going for the goal of 70 more pounds

Janelle, wow such a pretty gal! Welcome to the boards. Look around, we have so many boards here that you might find similarities to make friends.

I started at 330 lbs. and a size 28/30, and lost 47 lbs. pre surgery. I have lost another 34 since. I have never been more glad to do something for myself. I wish the same for you.

You just caught my attention anyway because Janel is my middle name. It would have been my first but my Mom and Dad battled between the two, which of course my Mom won! :lol:

      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.

      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! 😞
