Cpf 2 Posted January 16, 2012 I was banded three months ago and have loss a solid 22 lbs, 25 or 26 on a good day. I was hoping for more but am also happy with the loss. I have had two fills and am scheduled for another one in 3 weeks. I do not feel restriction so much in feeling full but have to eat slowly or get stuck with certain foods. Last week I started exercising more so I'm hoping that helps but am interested in the rate of weight loss others have experienced (i know everyones different) and what feel restricted really feels like in terms of weight loss?

xavier 153 Posted January 16, 2012 For me restriction is eating 1/2 to 3/4 cup of any food and feeling very full. Two more bites and I am miserable.In the long haul I lost about 6 pounds a month when my restriction was good. I am now in maintenance with 8cc in a 10cc band.

FLORIDAYS 3,040 Posted January 16, 2012 After the initial first couple of months losing about 20 lbs per month I have settled into good restriction and lose about 9-12 lbs per month consistantly. I have very good restriction now and am full after about 4-5 oz of food. To help my band work more effectlvely I eat 1000-1200 calories per day. I am looking forward to getting to goal in about 50 lbs and maintaining.... 1 sunshineinbama reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cazzy 725 Posted January 16, 2012 I am 7cc in a 14 cc band, i eat around 3 oz Protein and a good portion of 2 green veg, i dont get hungry in between meals as the veg and protein last me around 4 hours. I lost around 14lbs a month with eating around 1000 calories a day and exercising every day, including cycling around 6 miles a day. Its been hard work to keep exercising but i have to otherwise i just dont lose weight . 1 sunshineinbama reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rainbowcows 0 Posted January 16, 2012 I am also 3 months out. I weighed 276 on my surgery october 14th and I weigh 250 now. I have 2 fills. I TRY to count calories but honestly, lately I've been very busy. (I'm a musical theatre performer) I was told I was doing great. We have similar stats, you're doing fine. It's a slow and steady weight loss. So keep going at it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gingermo 1 Posted January 16, 2012 I was banded on 10/14 too! I have lost about 30. I still have a problem wanting to eat at night. But during the day I don't want food hardly at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
