I don't know about the rest of you but I am so psyched!! :tt2: I thought it would be fun to see how much we have lost ... say starting with your preop diet (or at least 2 weeks before banding) until now. I think it would also be very motivational for the rest of those who are still waiting to be banded -- give them something to look forward to and help shake those jitters!

Anyway, I was banded on May 8, and as of today have lost a total of 20.5 pounds!! :wink_smile:

61!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Excellent!!!!!!!!!!!! So you´re up to about 8ccs in your 14 cc band? I´m up to 6.6cc. Trying to get there!

ENJOY your loss!:thumbup:

I think I am at 9cc's. I've had 4 fills plus a pre fill. I love where I am at right now, it seems about right. I hope it lasts a long time!

So pleased for you! Was just trying to get an idea about your cc´s. I know everyone is different, but doesn´t hurt to know!

Yes, mine is an AP large, 14cc, and I have 9cc in it. I had 4 as a prefill at surgery, then my fills were 3cc, .5cc, 1cc, and another .5cc (those are point 5's).

Wow, everyone is doing so well. I've been struggling with my weight ticker so I'm trying to see if it works now. What happens if you have a 10cc band and reach the 10cc fill and still need to lose weight?

Banded on May 27th

4th fill

Pre-op diet: 27lbs

I'm still 3cc's in a 10cc's. My doc likes a slow and strict fill plan.

Today I hit 192...64lbs gone!!!! My DH told me my capris were a little too big yesterday...well, size 16 misses!!!

I was banded April 2nd and am down 36 lbs. It has been slow:frown:, but I am still happy :biggrin: because I know I would not have lost it with out the band:thumbup:.

ditto! slow and steady wins the race. now if I would lay off that ice cream!

HI Everyone!

I haven't been posting lately because I was becoming too addicted to this site so I forced myself to stop and get out and enjoy life. I have lost a total of 48 lbs and still going. I think that I have found my sweet spot because I was filled 2 weeks ago to this day and I was at 212 lbs and am now down to 205!!!!!! OMG!!!! Anyhow, I am enjoying the band life and still sticking to the rules. Hope everyone is enjoying their loss as I am.

I am down 70 lbs today!!!:rolleyes2:

I'm stuck at not losing any weight since my 3rd fill on aug. 15th. Of course I was not able to get to the gym for 2 wks straight. I am following the rules and still not losing weight. congrats to other may bandsters that have lost over 50 lbs that is so great..wish I was one of them.

love and light

I haven't updated my ticker and won't til weds, but I felt so "thin" today so I hoped back on the scale...WOW-EEEE!!!! It was 192 weds, but 189 today!!!!!

Congrats everyone! I was banded 5/28/2008 and as of this AM I have lost 63 lbs....woooohooooo. I have hit some rough spots with the weight loss but have been able to keep my eating pretty steady. I try to focus on what and how I eat and being consistent with exercise but let's be honest we all want to see the scale continue creep downward.

Ok, someone please tell me I am not the only one losing slow. I had surgery on May 22.
