I haven't posted in quite awhile..... same as I've been reading, got busy.. excuses, excuses, etc. At any rate, I have lost 40 lbs. - surgery date was 11/11/08 and feel great. As others, my weight loss has nearly come to a halt, but I am so happy with what I have accomplished. I have 7cc in my 10cc band and definitely have restriction. I have to be very careful what I eat and how I eat it. Still love my band! Keep up the good work, all!
