hi all I got banded on Oct 2nd 2009. I am doing Very good loosing weight like crazy. And yesterday I was weighed at my first fill the 6 week markand.... I finally saw the 2 in front of my weight not that ugly 3... I was 296 lbs. the first time I broke the 300 mark in over 3 years!!!! It brought a tear to my eyes when i was on the scale... all it takes is a moment like that to get me ultra motivated and thinking that it all was worth it.....

You're doing great! Congrats!

I know how you feel! I was some happy to see that 2 myself.

Holy Cow CA! That is awesome. You were banded 3 days before me and you lost 65 lbs???? That is sooo great.

congrads keep up the good work:thumbup:

That is so wonderful! I know you are so proud! It is an awesome feeling when you start seeing changes, but I sometimes see more changes in my clothes and sizes than I do on the scales. I am still hoping to make it to "two-terville" myself, but I still have 22 pounds to go. Keep up the great work, and congratulations!:thumbup:

Woo Hoo! Congratualtions.

Congratulations!

thank you all you kinda get that motivation factor kicking in high gear when something like the 2++ kicks in...... I had a lot of swelling after my band was done so i was in the hospital for 6 days hooked to just a IV...no foods or liquids for 6 days..I lost about 15 lbs during that stay.I guess it was a good "jump start" to my weight loss..lol
