    2 year anniversary

    :clap2:July 27th was my 2 year anniversary and I could not be happier. It has been the best decision for me and I would do it again in a heartbeat. I lost 88 pounds my first year and have been up and down about 4 lbs. this second year. I do still do my walking BUT have found myself getting in bad habits such as ice cresam in evenings and some chips and dip. I do have to watch the old habits. I do feel SSOOOO much better and have a little more energy. I had my surgery at 56 YO, so it is a little harder than a younger person but still good. I am looking at TT in Sept. and have been to 2 DR's for consults. I started at 297.5 and now at 213 lbs. At my age I feel this is where I will probably be but 180 would be nice.:clap2: DR said I would be a candidate to have it done with success. Just the belly keeps me in a size bigger I feel. Thanks for listening as I usually am just a reader here and not a writer but did want to share my success.
  6. Congrats to all the July '05 bandsters!! Great work. My anniversary is the 27th. Down 83 pounds and very happy. I do walk 6 of 7 days a week for 40 minutes and do look forward to it. NEVER thought I would say that!! I eat about 1-2 cups depending on day. No bread, eggs sometime, no steak except a taste of my DH's. Eat lots of fish and chicken. I am finding myself snacking at night with popcorn and sherbet or SF-FF pudding. And a few cookies but not everyday. I need to watch that tho. Looking forward to next year too. Start 297.5 and now 214.5---- I would do this again in a heartbeat!!

    To Booze or Not to Booze

    Congrats on your decision. I do frozen marguaritas every Friday and they go down good but makes my restriction tighter. BUt I do it anyway and eat SLOW. It just tastes so good in this hot southern weather. I did not do it for first 6 months. Now 11 months out and will write at my 1 year anniversary.

    Newbie

    Welcome Willybe! This is a great place to research and find great support. I have lurked here for a year before I registered and had surgery on 7-27-05. It is a journey and everyone is individual but still many similarities. I used to wonder what they were talking about, PB'ing but you do learn for yourself soon enough. Good luck and hope to share your journey.

    Has anyone read this book?

    Excellent read for pre.bandsters. I read several times when researching and also many times waiting for my surgery. Definitely worth the money. I would be glad to mail to anyone. 2aslimmerme.

    Looking for July 2005 bandsters!

    Banded 7-27-05 297.5 at consult now 266 -- unofficial down 31.5 lbs. BUT gone forever are they!! Really excited but have had 1 fill and felt no difference. I am making mostly good choices tho but would like help with portions which I know I will get soon. Next fill about 10-24-04. Y'all keep up all the inspiring posts!!

    Attention!!! Any July 2005 Bandsters

    Banded 7-27-05 and doing good. I had first fill 9-12-05 and don't have any restriction. I do try to eat right, good choices and sometimes eat too fast but so far never had the PB yet. Down 30 lbs. and do walk about 6 times a week for 30 minutes. I do snack on Protein crisps but they are better than chips. I can still eat bread but so far have chosen it only twice and have had toast a few times. I am pleased with my band so far and as long as scales go down, even slowly, I am happy. I feel like I am still "living normally". Start wgt. 297.5, now 268.0 unofficial 5' 4''
