queenbeeoffour 0 Posted November 24, 2005 I'm thrilled! I've lost 20 lbs in 18 days (9 days pre-surgery/9 days post-op). I'm already scheduled for a fill on Dec 28th and I can move from blender to soft foods in two weeks! Another 20 lbs off will take me to a weight lower than what I was when I met my husband over 12 years ago - I'm so excited!!!! I know the honeymoon will be over soon and the weight loss will slow down, but what a great running start. I'm happy that I have made this decision. I feel for everyone that is having problems and wish you all the best. Yes, the band has it's risks, but look at the great advantages! Thanks for this site and for all of the great people that make it what it is!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dutchgrl59 2 Posted November 24, 2005 Dear LaReine, I'm encouraged by your progress. My weight is just like yours and I can only imagine what the numbers will look like when the scale moves. Congratulations on your wonderful success! Start shopping for those skinny pants! Hugs, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
