I am getting banded at the end of September. I am 16 stone at the minute and a dress size (uk) 18-20. What do you recon I will be able to get down to by christmas? I really wanna be able to get a lovely outfit for going out in. Do you think I will be able to get down to a 14 or 16? I have a xtrainer I will be using too.

Thanks

I was 233 starting out. Lost 3 lbs prior to surgery (yuck...on the 3-day liquid diet). In the first 3 months after Lapbanding, I lost 42 lbs. That was with STRICT adherence to diet (the post-op regulations, but then also low-carbing after that) and also exercise.

What YOU can lose is up to you. :blushing: Everybody is of course going to be different because of genetics and drive to lose. But I'm just giving you ONE idea of what's possible. :w00t:

So how much did you lose?
