Congrats to all our August Bandsters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :biggrin:

start date june 10th: 360 lbs

surgery date august 5th: 330 lbs

i've lost a total of 44 so far...and i think i'm down at least one size it's so hard to tell. i have old clothes in my closet that are marked 26/28 and some newer clothes that are marked 30/32 but when you hold them up to each other...they're the same cut and size. that's so frustrating!

keep up the awesome work everyone!!!:wink_smile:

I went in for my seminar March 1. I was a size 24. I slowly lost 40 pounds before surgery on August 5. Since surgery I have lost 23 pounds for a total of 63 pounds and in a size 18.

I had no pre-op diet, so what you see is what I've lost. I gained a bit between my 1st and 2nd fill, but I'm slowly on my way down again. I'll get another fill in 3 or 4 weeks.

Beginning of process to Surgery: 266 to 254 = 12 Pounds

Surgery to now... 254 to 229 = 25 pounds

Total loss: 37 Pounds

Great job All Stars.......:thumbup:

Start 316 current 282. Goal 200lbs

First fill 9/27 1.5cc next fill 11/12

Keep fighting for success.

9/26 to 10/25=401.5-366.2= 35.3 lost

I lost 42 before surgery and 22 so far after. Have had 2 fills still no restriction. I go in for my third fill thursday.

Surgery weight 250 - current weight 209! 41 lost. I have had one fill and while it seems impossible to believe I don't think I need another soon. I am going to the gym 5 days a week. Two months ago I couldn't walk to the mail box without my body aching and out of breath. This is the best thing I could have ever done for myself. Love it!
