DM4077 0 Posted September 28, 2011 Hey All, I was banded on 3/21/11 in Salt Lake City, UT. I was wondering how much you had lost by your 6 month mark? I am down 37 pounds. I am wondering if that is normal or slow? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dk4k 15 Posted September 28, 2011 Everyone is different, but I had lost about 50 lbs. by the 6 month mark. But in the last 4 months I've only lost about 10! So you're neither fast nor slow, you're on your own time. The important thing is that those 37 pounds are GONE!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stratcat 10 Posted September 29, 2011 I had lost just over 50, but stalled out in last part of June due to an overfill............I think I just needed a break,(and my doctor's office said that it was OK -- the band is forever). I have lost about 6 more in the last 2 months --- ( almost 60 lbs in 8 months - PTL). I have an appointment later this month for a fill to get me back on track. My last fill was in June. I thought I'd get aggressive and try to loose 20 more by Christmas. I am not even half way yet....but I feel no rush and am hoping the slow approach keeps my skin tight. (I am 48 years old). I have a long journey, almost 150 lbs -- so I decided to take it slow and steady and enjoy the journey. I wish you a wonderful journey, too! BTW - the thing below is inaccurate and i forgot PW to update. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Renee1003 2 Posted September 30, 2011 I'm 8 months post op and down 47 pounds. scale didn't move much at all after the first month but I'm working out 4-5 days a week at the gym and clothes are falling off. Wish it were more but it's an amazing loss regardless. Congrats to all of you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
