Hi Everyone,

I had my surgery on November 3rd of 2008 . I have lost 25 pounds since the surgery and I am very pleased but yet,I still think it should be more. Am I being just plain silly. I know everyone is different but I can't help but be greedy with my weight loss lol.

I've had only one fill ,which is on January 8th and so far,I don't feel like I need another one. My weight loss tends to be sporadic,for example i'll go a whole week without losing anything and then i'll be down 2 pounds the following week. I am exercising on average of 4 to 5 times a week which I probably should kick it up a notch but anywhoo,to all you experianced bandsters,does this seem normal? Thanks ! :biggrin:

I am so glad that I found this thread. I have been really upset today because it has been over two weeks and my weight has not gone anywhere. It has stopped altogether it sames to me anyhow. Thank you for the up left in my spirits. I was banded on 1/8/09 and lost about 30 lbs after post op. What can I do to get it to move again. I would love to break that 230 mark for good. Thanks for listening to me.

Hi there!! 30 pounds post op is incredible considering your just a tad over a month post op!! I stopped losing weight right before I had my first fill so that may be the issue . Have you had your first fill yet ?

Thank you GND for starting this and thank you to everyone that responded. I was able to feel better about where I am at and I was able to relax this weekend. So thanks everyone. I am so glad I found this place. :rose:
