I don't have my band yet - I am in the 3 month supervised diet now. Can I join? I certainly have weight to lose.

I'd love to join too! I was banded in '07 but went a year with an unfill, and am just getting back on track the past few months. Would love to have something to motivate me to stay on track! Looking forward to the new us'es!

I just joined as well! I'm not sure where I'll be by Thanksgiving (hopefully at least close to my Thanksgiving Challenge goal weight) but I'll adjust my goal based on where I am at by Thanksgiving. I REALLY hope I can meet my Thanksgiving goal but this will be a great way to continue the motivation! Totally excited!

I'm in! THis may just be the motivation I need. I'm a old bandster that's fallen off the wagon. Well, not only did I fall off, it's run me over!

I've joined the spreadsheet. Looking forward to any help I can get.

I just got another fill today. I'm hoping this will be my sweet spot. I'm also hoping it will help me get to my goal of 199.9 for thanksgiving (13.5 pounds to go). That way I will be solid for my NYNY goal. If not, I will just tack it on. I REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY would like to start the New Year UNDER 200 pounds (for the first time in God knows how long).

I'm definitely in! I hope to meet my Turkey Day goal, and I want to set another realistic goal yet one that will still challenge me. Hmmm....I'm thinking 215 (presently 233) sounds pretty good. That is ten pounds between Thanksgiving and New Year's Day. I know there will be temptations, but I can do it!!!

Hi all - I'm in. Tried to set a realistic goal. I'll be thrilled to meet it by New Years! Best of luck to all who enter! Hopefully we'll never have to see these numbers again!

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
