Still no movement for me, scheduled another fill for 12/1, hopefully that will get me moving again. Good job by everyone though, keep going as you are providing me with the inspiration I need!

Hi Guys Feeling pretty good about things right now. Went to see the Shrink today stepped on his scales lost another 4 lbs (that brings me to 285). He likes to see his patients loose 3% body weight or more be for surgery and I have lost 8% that I have done my part to get ready. Tomorrow I will just be another guy with the Band working on getting Healthy and Skinny.

See you on the other side

Awesome, goat! I'm still holding @302. I think the scales are starting to swing, though.....adding in some walking on the treadmill, of all things seems to be very effective for me.

So Old Goat, by now you have joined the ranks or as I write this you are on the table getting it done, either way my heartfelt congratulations on the first step of your journey!

Nothing gained, nothing lost. Holding at 254 (which is pretty weird, I think - I usually fluctuate quite a bit). Oh well. Patiently waiting for 240's...

Hi Guys: Feeling pretty good again just returned from the Doctors, staple removal day and the official scales. Pat on the back dropped another 10lbs down to 275lbs and start solid food today. You remember cottage cheese, string cheese, a little deli Turkey.:)

254...AGAIN ! Think I have to shake it up a bit. I actually lost like 4 ounces, but it has been a while on the 254 handle. Did make it through Thanksgiving and some work related travel without gaining - I'll try a little extra before Christmas comes to move the scale a bit...

Hi Guys: Well I dropped the two pounds that I gained and quite a few more Sunday weighed in at 266. Thats a 9 pound loss from 11/26/08 think I'm still on the just banded Honeymoon.

Remember to watch out for Xmas foods, and surly you wont let a 70 year old goat bet you in the race to good health?:wink:

Down to 295 for me, finally have the kind of restriction I needed and am moving downward once again. What has happened to Fenton? He was one of the starters here and no word from him, anybody know?

Old Goat here on the go down another 5 pounds off in the last two weeks. Man have I been starving but had my first fill on 12-16 2.5 cc and another on 12-23 2 cc for a total of 4.5 cc. Still on liquids and mushes so not sure if it will help the hunger. Guys have a Merry Christmas and a Merry New Year

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
