Lisalee I am not overly tall 5'6" I was always told that I don't look my weight. Again I truely appreciate all the writings that have taken place. It's so nice to see that so many people are in the same boat. I go back to the obesity clinic on Tuesday and see my surgeon for a fill on Wednesday then I will get an accurate weight. I too need to remember that this is a two year process. Thanks again

Hi Everyone, just found this part of the site. It was great reading different entries from people banded the same time as me. I was banded September 14 by Dr. Connie Campbell in NH. I went from a size 20 263LB's to a size 12 190 LBS. I have been working my butt off (literally) at the gym. I was going 4 times a week (very hectic end of the school year hope to get back next week) and just joined a womens softball team. I sometimes get discouraged about the slow weight loss but I see that I am in the same boat as many of you. I wish I had known about this link back in September. Thanks for the inspiration. I will check back soon.

Hello I am new to to this site and have enjoyed reading many of the postings. I was banded in September at a starting weight of 263 lbs and have lost a total of 44 lbs. I started back at the gym right after Christmas. I am confused about the lack of weight loss after starting to work out. I work out about 4 times a week I am doing the elliptical for 30 minutes and the treadmill for another 30 minutes. I am averaging over 600 calories burned in the hour that I am there. I have lost NOTHING since going to the gym. Is anyone else experiencing this? My calorie intake is only around 1000-1200 calories a day. I teach first grade so I am very active during the day keeping up with the kids. Thanks for any help you can give me.

Wow that was quick! They are getting a little looser but since I am still 219 lbs.! I thought the weight would come off as well as the inches. I am down 9 inches (in waist)since September but I am not sure how many since December. Are you or did you go through a similar slump?
