Whoo hoo!!

Yay! Today is my 8 week surgi-versary. I got my first fill on 5/14/09, since then I've lost 7 more lbs. With the 12lbs lost during the 2 week pre-op diet, I have lost 29 lbs since my surgery on 4/3/09 for a total of 41 lbs lost!! I don't know if this is typical, above average, below average... I'm just excited, :smile:

My clothes are starting to get big... I shall have to go buy new bras soon. :smile:

All in all... a great day I think!

Good luck to everyone out there have a lovely banded day!

Congrats on your loss! Thanks for spreading your cheer around!!! I think your slightly above average although everyone is different. I'm about six weeks post op and have lost 22 lbs. I'm probably slightly below average. : ( I actually re-gained a 3 lbs before my first fill. I had my first fill 3 days ago on 05/26/09 and feel like I'm back on track. I've lost the lbs I regained plus one! I'm not anywhere close to my sweet spot but, hope to be well on my way.

Congrats!!!!

I watched my wife go through it, and I may have to give up my Man card for admitting it, but I was very happy this week to go buy, and wear to work, 36 jeans and a Large shirt. (former 42/XXL)

I'd be curious as to how that is priced. Shakee is one of those multilevel marketing companies where the goal is to get someone to sell for you more so than to actually sell stuff. So the actual user is paying commission to a long list of people.
