I have my band every 6 wks. or so. I'm supossed to get tightned on monday, but I cancelled because I feel fine were I am at for now. But you're doing great!

This is new for me. I don't personally know anyone who has this surgery and I'm looking for people to relate to. Has anyone been banded with a staring BMI under 40? My BMI was 37. So if anyone has any questions about that, I'll be happy to answer.

Hi, Im having some issues with getting in enough protein. I'm 4 mo. out, should i still be taking in protein shakes? I still feel like i am not eating enough, though i am not hungery. Does anyone have an example of what they normally eat in a day and how often. Maybe I should be writing my intake down? Also does anyone have issues with swallowing pills?

Hey taylor52, That's really exciting, no need to be worried though, sure it's a little nerve wrecking but you'll be fine. I have had really good results so far I hit a plateu once, but that's normal. I would deffinatly say that you should be way under 200 by then! I started with a BMI of 37 and a wt. of 213, I loose about 2-3lbs a week generally. So far I've lost 48lbs in 4 mo. Hope to loose 35 more lbs. If you have any other ?'s Keep me posted and goodluck!

Hi, I'm from Cleveland too! Well, Parma to be exact. I heard Dr. Trace was excellent. I had Dr. Eyman at Parma Hospital, I started off at 213lbs aswell, and we're at about the same now.

Only 90 pounds to lose...How long did it take you?

Hey everyone! I'm glad I read your threads! I've been trying to find people in the same situation as me. I was banded in January and so far I've lost 48 lbs. I started with a BMI of 37, 213lbs. Everyone looses weight differently. I was at a stable wt. for 2-3 weeks. I have to say that after my 3rd fill the wt. really came off. I've lost 10lbs in 2 weeks. As long as you stay active and have your fills every 6 wks or so, you shouldn't have a problem. I wouldn't say that it takes longer for lower BMI person, I hope to get to my goal of 125-130lbs by the end of the year. I think it's possible. Good luck! -
That is so exciting that you got approved!! I remember when I was approved, I was histarical!! Anyway I was banded in January with a BMI of 37, 2 comorbidities, and family history. It seems we have a similar story, I've already lost 48 lbs, I'm halfway there!! It'll be rough at first but you won't regret it.
