Down 106 lbs



Recommended Posts

HI,

My lap band surgery was Jan. 2005. By the end of 2006, I had gone from 256 lbs. to 150. I have had some of my own trials and tribulations but have seem to have finally come up with a diet that allows me to feel good and not feel as though I am missing out on anything. Personally I am trying to get to about 140 purely for vanity. I'm into a size 6 which I still can't believe. Its the best when clothing fits season to season. I have spoken at different classes to help others get on track and stay motivated. If I can help, I would love to help.

Pat, Great work on your beginning! You must be following the diet very well. If you end up trying something that doesnt agree with you at first look at the situation you were in while eating. Stress at work, home, kids, etc. seem to make a difference. People tend to eat faster under stress. Congratulations on starting the healthy phase of your life.

I'm interested in your philosophy. From what you said I thought maybe you are one of those who prefers to eat a little more and maybe have your band a little loose. Is that the case? I am new at this but so far I feel that if I am losing weight I will wait on the fills. No use being tight and risking having problems when I can lose weight a little slower and feel more satisfied with the amount I eat.

I love to hear success stories. I wish I had one to share about myself...but I still have hope and know one day I will succeed.

My surgery date was November 2005 and my total loss is 35 lbs. I would love to hear your plan and how you've been so successful.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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!!
