June Bugs?

Ahh, there we are! I had lost the group and couldn't figure out how to find it again!

I am down (since surgery day) 40 pounds and down (since pre-op) 56 pounds. It's a start! I had to have an unfill a couple weeks ago because I was having a hard time keeping much down and wasn't getting enough calories...which made me not lose anything for about a month or so. But since my unfill 2 weeks ago, I am down 4 and a half pounds! So I think it was the right decision.

How is everyone else doing??

And add me on Facebook if you want! Maggie Hitchinson is my full name.

Hi, I didn't know we had a June 2010 group. I just kind of stick to the main forums and i was snooping around on here. How are we all?

Help... I was banded in June 2010 and down 60 lbs, but I haven't lost anything for atleast 4 months. I am tight enough, but the weight is not coming off. Can you guys give me some ideas of your meal plans. How much you eat, calories per day etc.. Thank you so much!!

Hi fellow June Bugs. Found this one when I got an email for my 1 year anniversary.

I'm down 92 lbs since surgery and am feeling wonderful but "saggy". LOL

Looking forward to having some excess skin removed in anothercouple of months. I'm sure there's another 10 lbs or so hanging where it shouldn't be.

I've lost steadily over the past year and even though I've been very disciplined in what I put past my lips and when, I have not exercised near enough. I just joined a Zumba class and hopefully can get time to get to the gym on a regular basis to firm up.

I've 4 1/2 in a 10 m band. My secret is to portion everything onto my plate, never ever eat anything without preparing it ( weighing if needed, cutting, serving on a dish). I never eat out of a container nor anywhere other than at a table. Difficult at first but have I ever saved a lot of money with no fast food and no waste.

Wish you all success'
