hello my fellow bandsters have not been on in a while went for my dr.visit today and iam only a few pounds short of onderland iam at 202.2 so close yet so far away was told eat more,drink more well that sounds like i will be gaining instead of losing idk..sounds like everyone is doing great keep up the good work !!!!

i was hyper and had every sign and symptom except weightloss go figure had to have it removed so now iam hypo and on alot of meds so i think i lose slower then most iam 5 mts out and have only lost 50 lbs.....

my drs rule is stop drinking 15 minutes before you eat and wait a hour after your meal an let me tell you i cant even think about drinking after i eat it is like a plug and i feel like it will come back up anyway my body tells me when i can drink again once i am done eating..

im was banded on the same day as you and am loseing just as slow i went for my 3rd fill last week so i have 5.5 in my 10 cc band and just know feel some restriction.i beat myself up every day wondering why i did this if it wont work maybe i should have got the sleeve or bypass idk but i eat my protein,veg,then fruit i work out 3 days a week and still this is going to be a very looonnggg journey,and i get so discouraged when i see everyone else doing so well,but iam glad im not alone......
