Erykah,

When were you banded? How much have you lost so far?

Hi JuneAct2! I haven't been banded yet, I'm going for my seminar next Wednesday 23rd, then off to my initial dr visit on October 2nd. . I exercise like a devil (with griping) because I have to, I hate hurting in my back (I'm 6'0 tall and weigh 330) and legs. . .it helps my heart too. . .I'm nervous about getting the surgery but I know it'll help me alot (I hope) :mad2:

Hi Erykah,

My highest known weight was 338 and I'm 5 5, or maybe 6. I can feel differences at 7 months out, and I commend you, even though you gripe (I do too, and I'm sure we're not the only ones!) You're already ahead of the game because you're exercising. I've found it easier to move since I've been banded. I don't like exercising any more than before though! :)

Hi all,

It's been nine months since anyone posted here, and I'm just wondering how everyone is doing.

I'm on vacation this week. I've been on the treadmill every day, and done my weight resistance training, but I really don't like exercising. Yes, I feel good after I've done it; yes, I've lost a couple of pounds, but that doesn't make it easier. Can anyone relate?

I just wanted to see if any of my fellow not overachievers are still out there!

Hi Debbie!

Still here, barely. And still NOT an achiever! LOL!

Glad you checked in. Great job on the exercising. I know it's hard.

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

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
