Ok, I was banded 5/19/09. I started off at 254 and I am down to 248. I am going to have my first fill in 2 weeks, on the 29th of June. I have lost a total of 6lbs! I was eating 800 calories, but a friend said that I wasn't eating enough. I am now eating anywhere between 1000 and 1200 calories. I also workout at the gym 5 days a week. I am living on what little will power I have, and the hope and prayer that things will change once I have my first fill. Someone...anyone please help!!!!!!:wink2:
