  1. I ran 8 miles straight yesterday with no walking :) I'm also down 40 lbs!

  2. I ran my first 5K yesterday! I finished in 33 minutes and 29 seconds :) I just started jogging two weeks ago.

  3. Woohoo! 30 lbs down as of today! It feels SO good :)

  4. First fill went fine. Definitely didn't hurt as much as I thought it might. I now have 3 ccs in a 10 cc band. The only bummer was that the appointment took 5 hours!

  5. I thought I'd post my before and after pictures at one month post-surgery. I'm down 24 lbs thanks to diet and walking 4-6 miles 6 days a week. I feel SO much healthier and happier than I did a month ago when I had surgery. I was so tired of struggling up stairs and feeling uncomfortable in movie theater seats. I am starting to feel good in my own skin now. I still have 98 lbs to go to reach my goal, but I know that I will get there
  6. Tomorrow is my first fill and I'm nervous. I HATE needles. I know that it will all be ok though.

  7. Woohoo! 2lbs down in 3 days! Definitely what I needed after a week of nothing. I started jogging on Sunday. It's a huge accomplishment for me :)

  8. Gained 2.5 lbs within about 3 days and then lost exactly that much four days later...what a weird week this has been ;)

  9. I'm from the Midwest, but we live in Germany :)

  10. Thanks for adding me :) How are you doing?

    One Month Post-Surgery

    Thanks guys! I am really happy with my progress so far This surgery was definitely the right choice for me!
  12. One month post surgery! It's been a great week :)

  13. Hey! How are you doing post-surgery? I hope all is well :)

  14. Haven't lost much the last week and a half even though I'm kicking my butt at the gym. Oh well. I'm down a clothing size and I am under a 100 in terms of how much I need to lose :)

  15. Woah! 3.7 lbs down since Tuesday! All of this walking must be working :) I've been walking 4 miles per day 5 days a week!

  16. Hey! Congrats on your surgery :) We were banded the same day! You asked about my stitches, I was banded in Frankfurt, Germany. I wish they had used the glue like they do in the states.

    How are you feeling?

  17. Today is my two week bandiversary :) I have lost 7 lbs since I was banded and 18 total from the time of my pre-op diet :) It feels so good to be losing weight instead of gaining!

  18. Can't wait to get my stitches out tomorrow! My incisions are SO itchy! :)

  19. Ok, after scouring the site for info on whether or not my 4 lb loss for the first week post surgery was normal, I guess it is. My body is still healing and I need to quit comparing myself to everyone else ;)

  20. One week past surgery and I'm not losing very quickly. Is that normal in the beginning? Hoping that this next week is a better week for loss ;)

  21. Incisions are still really bugging me. How long did it take for yours to heal well enough to not be in pain?

  22. I'm doing alright, but my incisions really hurt. Hopefully that will pass soon!

  23. I am banded and feeling alright :). Still at the hospital for another night and they don't have the Internet.

  24. Tonight is my last night in my own bed for as few days! Tomorrow morning I check into the hospital for pre-op tests and I have my lap-band placed on Tuesday!!! Pretty excited :)

  25. Got my wedding band off of my chubby finger for the first time in a couple of years ;) I needed to get it off before surgery. Thank you liquid diet ;)
