Dooter you just need to keep this mantra in mind: I am a kicka$$ bodaciously beautiful woman My fat lipids fear me and shrivel away to nothing I am the awesome! The world is my 2 oz steak tartare I am a kicka$$ bodaciously beautiful woman! On the serious side, everybody's body looses weight at different speeds from different places. Example: My face and thighs lose weight before my chest. And it takes a Herculean amount of weight loss for my stomach to go away. You'll get there, just think positive!

My butt yet to start shrinking either, but my feet have melted down to a normal foot size, my pants went down 2 waist sizes, and my face has melted away so it is a glowing 1 chin face....my heart and liver and kidneys i'm sure are rejoycing due to their loss of fats around them.... Always check out the positives....fat is lost around your heart, liver , and kidneys first because they are the ones who are taxed the most from our weight issues, this allows us to get more energy and be healthier so our bodies can exercise with less trouble. Your/my butts will come soon enough give it time, give it time...we didn't make these butts over night!

{{DOOTER}} Patience and persistence will pay off, I promise (I must believe this). Be gentle with yourself and take long walks with loving words for yourself in your heart.

Yea, me too. my surgery was the 28 also and everyday I feel better.

Congrats!! I too was banded on March 28th.. Around 4:15pm. The gas pains were the worst!.. Esp the shoulder pain! I'm starting to feel like my old self again.. actually slept comfortably last night! Yayyy for us!! =)

Yes, and every time I lose it "on my own" I gain back about 10% more than I lost. Dieting has made me morbidly obese! I think what you say is just right. I haven't told anyone yet but I pprobably will when they ask. I just don't know if I will be as nice as you about it!
