Almost 5 years since surgery

So glad to hear from someone who has had the band for 5 years and congradulations on your weight loss. If WW is what you think you need to lose that last 20 lbs. then go for it. Healty eating is the key. I try to eat the good food first so that I have no more room for the soft and calorie filled foods.

Cool post! Thanks for checking in and telling us your story.

I am going to WW also - mostly just for weighing in. It keeps me accountable and I am determined to make Lifetime. Gonna get that little gold star!

WW has helped me a lot this time around. I found myself just going up 1 pound and down 1 pound over and over.

If it was up to me by myself, I'd stop at about 180 pounds (cause I would think I looked hot even if I didn't --whoo hoo-- size 16 feels pretty good after being size 24!) and never get to my real and final goal of 155 and size 12.

Good for you and continued success on your final 20 pounds.

HI,

Thanks for the post. I recently also joined WW, but I am pretty early on my journey so I'm hoping that it will help me get and stay on track from the beginning.

I'll admit that I get a little maxed as I see several of my co-workers losing weight (it's an "At-Work" program) and I'm still working with my surgeon to find my correct fill level so I know that I will get there, but it does sometime make me feel a little down.

I know i'm on the right path though and recently began a Jazzercise class with some friends that has been a lot of fun so I hope that will help kick-start me as well.

Thanks for the long-term look at life with the band, I love hearing how great it has been and I hope you too can get back on the bandwagon =) and meet your goals!
