mizpk83 9 Posted May 13, 2012 Hello fellow banders... I am almost 2 months out and is feeling great. I've been reading that many are getting depressed because they are not losing... My advice it to be patient it seems like it just go away over night. I've went from an 18 to 14 I've lost a ton of inches and just 30 pounds I'm not worried about the pounds as long as I'm losing inches and Health is great. I realize that the weight it slower and I am happy with that. At my job many thought that I was out having my gall bladder removed.. Well my boss saw me walking in the hall and he said "holy **** you have lost a lot of weight" I laughed and said thank you then he proceed to say Lisa did you really have your gall bladder removed or something else I laughed it off and said yes I did.. So my advice is to be patient take it easy follow the rules and you will be happy because I am and I'm loving the band..

Cheers Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk mizpc83 ..i agree totally with this one. im about the same time out from surgery as you are. ... im having the same results and its wonderful. i dont want to lose too quickly either. consider that the weight loss ive had in seven weeks is just amazing, and whats more, im not starving myself either... so it couldnt be better. Its wonderful to get the comments.. you are doing so well. Congratulations on your decision. its certainly paying off well for you. Keep up the great work.
