Banded May 10Th 2012 And Already Some Nsvs!

[blanham04 38]

So as the title says I was banded on May 10th of 2012 and including the pre-surgery diet I have lost 50lbs so far. I didn't think I would have anything to Celebrate only a few weeks out, but I already do and thought I would share:

1. Everyone at work keeps asking me how much weight I've lost and how I am doing so well .

2. I went to the back of my closet and pulled out 10 items of clothing I haven't worn in 5 years or more!

3. My wife and I went to Disney World together and when we have gone in the past I am usually walking along with my feet hurting trying to keep up with her. This time she was trying to keep up with me! Also, I was able to ride a few rides for once!

I just thought I would share these with the community and I want to thank all the people on here so much. If I hadn't read your success stories I know I would have never went through with the surgery. I almost backed out the morning of, but decided that so many people had been successful and I wanted to as well. I am in love with my lapband at this point and so excited that I don't feel hungry and don't have the cravings like I used to. I look forward to continued weight loss and most importantly keeping the weight off long term.

Thank you all for the inspiration!

Fantastic! I was banded 5/21/12 and feel successful as well. Tried super hard and succeeded with pre-op shakes and sticking to the post-op 3 week plan. I'm down about 20 pounds and wearing my "other" clothes already. I've lost as much in a couple months and feel better than the years I was on WW. Thanks for sharing your story.
