Got up again this morning and went for a 1.5 mile walk with my youngest daughter, shaved 3 mins off the time from yesterday! Gonna stay busy this morning with house work and luandry. Have a great day!

O yeah baby! Went to my surgeon today for my 9 weeks post op, and I am 11lbs down in a month and 51 down since my highest!!! o and 20 inches, yeah baby! I got a true fill today of 2 ccs, SO now i will really know what it feels like to have a true restriction. Nervous but excited to watch the weight fall off
almost 5 months post op (12/30/10) everyday is a struggle, the band is just a TOOL, it is NOT a fix all. You MUST follow the "diet" i shouldn't say diet, its a lifestyle change. If you are not ready for a life change this will NOT work!! I am so excited for those of you that are starting your journey. You have no idea how much better you are going to feel. I am down 60lbs from my highest weight of 282, i have NEVER been able to keep weight off in my life. I am enjoying it, I just wish I could keep to my new life style change, its a daily struggle, but I CAN DO IT!
Banded 12/30/10 down 35 inches, from a size 22 to a 16, down 72 +/- lbs......would like to be @ 100lbs gone by my 1 yr banding date.....thats 3lbs a week, gonna be tough but maybe i will make it close, anything lost is progress!
