April 369 lbs 10/18/12 250 lbs!Weight loss has slowed down to 2-3 pounds a week.44 inch waist to a 36 inch waist....Major cutback in blood pressure....My metabolism was way out of whack the first few months thats whats led to the crazy weight loss.It was crazy 100 degrees out and i was freezing...Everything is good im going to get a fill before the holidays and by spring say good bye to the 200's!

I would not advise it.Slow and easy is much easier on the body!

I don't know why all my information and ticker have been lost on here.Anyway 9/4/2012 weigh inn 267 lbs.Starting weight 369.Surgery date was 5/9/12 and band had fill in it.I have not had a fill yet.For those you want to lose that quickly it takes a toll on the body but i think the body is catching up now!

Your doing it the right way!I had my surgery may 9th in april my weight was 369.Today it's 278 before anyone says great job it has taken a toll on my health! Im on potassium and go for blood work tuesday if it's no better i get a stay in the hospital.It's not that i dont want to eat, it's after a half cup i get sick..Dr says it's a mental thing..What i've started to do is eat 6 times a day that gets me up to 800-1000 calories a day.The good thing is my blood pressure has not been this good since my 20's and i feel a whole lot better.While there have been set backs i'd have the surgery again!
