54Shirley 105 Posted July 25, 2011 I had point 1 cc put in this 4cc band, so it has tamed my appetite, and I will be on liquids for a while. But i feel Great ! When I first went in 12 weeks ago I weighed 288. Today I weigh 255 Difference of 33 Lbs... I was shocked myself, because I only go by his scale. But I'm rite in the Ball Park. If this keeps up, I can see, feel, smell, taste, and DREAM of Onderland in sight for the end of this year. If it slows down, then let say by Easter..... If that happens,,,, it will be the first time since I was a Teenager. I almost forgot,,,,, When I first got weighed for my pre op diet, I weighed 356. It took a while to happen, but that's 101 Lbs. Gone for Good ! Slowly but steady, this Turtle will keep moving along. Shirley. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You will in time notice a big difference. If the first fills are not all that much, then like the rest of us, you probably won't even notice it. But once it does kick in,,, you will be able to tell the difference. Thanks, Shirley :party: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
