Swan56 6 Posted December 2, 2010 Hey Oreo - congrats on losing 38 lbs. I'm new here and haven't been banded yet but i do hope you get the support you are searching for. I know there is a section to help with recipes - just look around. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maxi2010 0 Posted December 2, 2010 Hi Oreo. I was banded on 9/17/10, just a few days after you. I lost 28 lbs so far and I am happy with these results. However, your 38 lb loss is even more awesome than mine! Congratulations on your great weight loss achievement! I have noticed that my weight loss has slowed down for me as well. Up until this week, however, I was losing weight, albeit sometimes less than 1 lb a week. I was grateful I did not gain weight (but I did not lose weight either) over Thanksgiving. I have started to introduce exercise into my life 5 days a week to help with my weight loss. It seems to help. The weight loss is still slow. I agree with you that it has something to do with finding our ideal "fill" amount for our band. I only have 3cc in my 10cc band which I don't think is the ideal amount since I'm still hungry. I'm scheduled for my next fill in 10 days. I can't wait! Maxi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
