I've lost 8 pounds over the past 3 weeks since surgery, plus the 8 I gained from surgery itself. I was told to not expect ANY weight loss in the first 2-4 weeks.

Everyone I have talked to has been different. One friend of mine lost 38 lbs his first month, another of my friends lost 15 her first month. Don't get discouraged if the lbs. are not flying off. From what I was told a 1-3lb per week weight loss is expected. I go for my surgery on Friday so watch for my progress Good luck!!

I was banded in August of 2010 and have lost 54 pounds!!!!! I did not get my first fill until February of 2011 due to the fact that I wanted to lose as much weight as possible in my own. About two weeks ago I platued and to my great suprise yesterday we found out I am 5 weeks pregnant with baby number 2!!!!

I like any flavor of whey Protein mixed with skim milk. I find them quite satisfying.
