Congradulations!

I, too, have lost over 100 lbs. I was banded 8 months 14 days ago. Isn't it a great feeling, almost hard to believe. I never thought I could be in a size 12! Even in my teenage years, the smallest I ever was was a 14.

I LOVE MY BAND!!!!!!

WOW. You both did an amazing job. How did you do it? To lose 108 lbs in just 8.5 months?

Thanks for the compliment. Yes, I did lose it quick but it was not always easy! I struggled with "banster hell" at the beginning but once I was restricted, the weight melted off. My whole mindset towards food seemed to change with restriction and I have never been so healthy and happy.

You are doing great so far! Best of luck to everyone!

Thanks for such quick response. I am only losing like 1 lb each week since last week, even though I was still on liquid diet last week. That really frustrated me coz I was so hungry all the time, yet I ate nothing but was not losing weight. I am glad to hear that after reaching a good restriction, the weight would start to melt off. Do you exercise everyday and a lot? I am only walking (slow walking) about 25 minutes each day coz I still feel the soreness to my left of bellybutton sometimes. I wonder if that is where my port is.

      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!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
