I'm looking to lose 80lbs and wanted to know if anyone has my stats and how long it took you to lose the weight. Thanks.

Me too! I'm at 234 right now... I'm 5'8

I was banded on 3/30/09

Hey everyone

I was banded jan 30 starting at 255 and now I'm 220 5'6 and I'm not sure how long it will take but I'm determined to get to my goal by the end of the year.

Banded 2/10. Starting weight was 284. Now at 233. And I'm not worried about how long it will take. I just know it will happen!

Hey.. im 5'6'', I stated at 230lbs. I was banded on 3/31/09. I have lost 15lbs by my first Dr. appt.

Thanks for all your replies guys!!

@Greyhoundgirl - I'm so proud of you! I wish I can lose 15lbs in 2 weeks post surgery!

@Alleycia - I'm pretty sure that at this rate, you will definitely get to your goal at the end of this year.

@ParrotHeadCathy - 51lbs in 2 months?? Wow, you're like a superstar in my heart.

Hello.. Unfortunately I am not in that category I am 5'2" and was 271 at surgery. So I was super short. You will do fine I am sure.

Just stopping in to say Hello

Brandy,

You have done so well. Congrat's! I looked over your blog. Your photos show such a difference. Great job.

I was banded on 9/19/07 My high was 250 in June 07 and now at 175. Been there for a few months now.

I was 5ft 10, about 245, BMI 36. It took me 2 years to lose about a hundred lb, I easily surpassed the top of my healthy weight range and settled at about the middle.

I found losing weight quite easy - I ate less and did more exercise and it was as simple as that. I continue to practice the same behaviours to keep the weight off.
