Hi everyone,

I am new to this site and to being banded! I had my surgery on May 13, 2008 and my first fill on June 23, 2008. I have lost a total of 36 pounds so far with 82 more to go. I am taking this one week at a time!

I don't really feel a huge restriction, which I expected after my first adjustment, I have my second one scheduled for July 21, so hopefully I will notice more of a difference in my appetite and on the scale.

I wish everyone the best on this journey we have started!

Hi! You and I have about the same starting weight, although I have yet to be banded. It's coming soon though, thank goodness!! Welcome to LBT, you are going to learn a lot here! Congratz on your great loss so far and good luck in the future!!!

Hi & WELCOME

You have an awesome start on your journey! Good luck & try not to get discouraged if the weight loss slows down a bit or even stops until you get some restriction going. I went through an eight week period and didn't lose a single lb.

keep your eye on the goal & remember how far you have come already!

WTG!!!
