U were 239 in that pic and u had a neck?? u must be tall!! When I was 239 i looked like miss piggy in the face with NO neck!!...lol.. So far my journey is going sooo slooow!! I am now yo-yoing b/w 201-197lbs. I cant seem to break past this point but im thankful to have reached this far. It took me abt 3months to get here in ONEderland from yo-yoing back and forth from 200-205.

Hello SwissMiss, I am now at 184 lbs and counting it has slowed up a bit but that's ok...I love my band and what it has done for me. How is your progress I know you look amazing. My goal I think will be 165 lbs we will see because I am looking pretty thin now. I need to update my profile pic because I weighed about 239 on that one. Take care and holla back!

I have no problem eating my 29 pts with 6cc in my band, and some weeks I eat more flex points than others especially if they are slider foods. Some days I am not as hungry so I may have 1 or 2 of my daily pts left, but WW is certainly what I needed to get the ball rolling again and the pounds dropping. I love my BAND!!!!!!!!!!! -

Yes I think you would do great on WW, I have loss 8 pounds since joining 5 weeks ago and it has been really easy to stay on track. I went to my lapband PA on yesterday and was praised yet again for my weight loss and I told them I had joined WW and they said it was fine. I eat all of my 29 points and a little more than half of my flex points and still been able to lose fine. Good luck on your decision but I do recommend WW. -

Hello all, I was banded on March 19, 2010 starting at 246 lbs the day of surgery 239 and by November 2010 with 3 fills and 5.5cc's in band I made it to 191 lbs and kinda stayed between 188-191 for 4 months. Old habits started creeping in, not eating large quantities but eating too many sweets and such, so while reading this forum I decided to joined WW 2 weeks ago and had my 4th fill bringing me to 6cc's ......I have loss 5.2 since joining WW and sooooo glad I did because I was eating way too much and I think you guys are right lapband + restriction+WW= weight-loss and success. It really has been easier to stay with my points each day and I barely use my flex points but some times I do use some. Hope this helps someone who is considering joining WW for a little more structure and accountability. -
Hello, I think that is a great idea. I was banded on March 19th 2010 and am down 55lbs I know my ticker says a little less but decided not to change it back seeing that I have been playing back and forth from 188-191lbs since December. I plan to join WW on wednesday and am scheduled to get my 4th fill on Tuesday (it's been 4 months) currently at 5.5cc in 10cc band....I so need a fill. I will keep you posted on my weight loss really need these last 20 something lbs gone.

Hello and yes we made it thru 1 year, I have lost 55 lbs and very excited, would have loved to be down more but I am still excited. I have been fluctuating between 188-191 for 3 months I need a fill really bad. I will be getting my 4th fill on March 29th and it is really needed because my cravings are back and I am eating way to much also thinking about food all the time...that is a sure sign for me. Congratulations to all of us for great success!

Anyone from NC?
CutieBJMR replied to Quilter at Heart's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Hello, I am from Goldsboro, NC and my decision to get lapband was the best ever. I had surgery on March 19th 2010 with Dr. Enochs in Cary, NC but actual surgery was done at Rex in Raleigh. I am down 57 lbs, starting weight was 246 at initial consult and this morning I weighed 189.2. Please if you have any questions feel free to ask. I LOVE LOVE LOVE MY BAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -
Wow, that is so awesome and a confirmation to my decision to just do protein shakes for 2 weeks and fruit and veggies prior to taking a trip to West Africa. A total cleansing is needed for my body. Thanks for posting and God bless!

Hello, I have lost 55 lbs since March when I was banded, at consult I weighed 246 day of surgery 239 and now 191. People say I have lost enough but I am still to close to the 200's and my goal is 165..I may feel different when the scale reads 175 I don't know cause have not seen that number since the 7th grade so with that being said I would definetly keep going if I were you. Hope this helps sn: it is getting harder to reach my goal but I will keep pushing through.
