Congratulations!! It feels fabulous doesn't it....Great job!

Thank you so much! You only have 25 more lbs to go, that's awesome, you got this! Best Wishes

I may be predisposed, but I am responsible for making myself fat by not eating right and not exercising...

You look amazing!!

Yes, I gained 6 lbs the day after surgery, it's gas and fluids that you received during surgery, it will be gone soon....Best Wishes

Go easy on yourself, to err is human....tomorrow is a new day. You can do this! Best Wishes

Does your PCP just not want to give you one? That totally sucks....is changing PCP's an option? It just seems so ridiculous for him/her not to give you the letter......I'm so sorry

Banded December 17th last year ~ 3 days until 7 months post op! Down 103 lbs, had one fill back in January...I didn't do a pre op diet..hope everyone is well

We were banded the same day! Congrats!

I'm lucky if I get in 800 calories a day, I'm one week short of 7 months post op. I stay away from processed foods and eat lean proteins, veggies and fruit.....I always get in between 100 and 120 oz of water a day. I just had my labs done a few weeks ago and my doc said everything looks great. Like Missy said everyone's nutritional needs are different, this works for me. I hope you find what works for you. Best Wishes

I love it!

You look fabulous!! Congrats!!

Great job everyone!!! I'm 101 lb's down with one fill back in January...feeling fantastic

6 months and 3 weeks ago. I was a huffing, puffing, size 24 wearing, 286 lb weighing miserable woman...today I weighed in at 186.2!!, 100 lbs gone and so much more, gone are the size 24's replaced with 12's (I have a lot of muscle!), I don't huff and puff anymore, I can run!, food does not consume my days or my thoughts anymore and I'm happy!! not miserable....If you are struggling or just starting out...I'm just a normal person, my band isn't magic, I follow the rules and respect my band, you can too

You look amazing!! Fabulous job!

You look fabulous girl!!!

Great news Karen, congrats and Best Wishes!!

I can't really add to the wise words of Jim but stick at it, it will happen and Best Wishes

You body will definitely benefit from whole natural foods, lean meat and fish, fresh fruit and veggies, healthy whole grains, a lot of water, your body will thank you for it...processed, chemical ladened foods are what made us fat in the first place....Best Wishes

Great milestone, huge congrats and on to the next!!

Woo hoo pink dahlia, love it! Fabulous job!

7 years..that's amazing! Congrats and Happy Bandiversary!!

I've tried the French Onion one, it was just okay, I only had about a tablespoon with a few cherry tomatoes, but I may mix it in some tuna...good suggestion!

It still amazes me how many calories I used to eat a day..omg shocking, no wonder I was so freakin heavy....I count every calorie I eat now and yeah some so called healthy options sometimes aren't for sure
