jshivery 0 Posted April 4, 2011 I needed this thread. I just got banded on 3/23. I have lost about 20lbs since pre-op diet and still have about 120 lbs to go. I am so worried that I wont be able to lose it on the band. But I am bound and determined putting myself through the 4 weeks of liquid diet and the surgery itself, I will succed, there is no failure. I really needed to see all these sucess stories!! thanks for sharing!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ExMissRump 0 Posted April 16, 2011 Hi everyone! I just want to say that I'm so glad that I found this app! It's nice to know that I'm not alone lol. I was 340 lbs before surgery, now I'm 187. I'm damn proud of myself and everyone on the boards! Amy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cjack 0 Posted April 18, 2011 Hi Everyone- It has been on my mind lately to start a new post as a positive, motivational, and inspiring thread. I have noticed several threads lately where those considering surgery are asking if it is 'possible' to lose 100 pounds with the band. My answer to that is...Yes, it definitely is. Many say it is not realistic. But I have watched the amazing progress of LBT members on the board, and believe it is not only realistic, it is happening to many of our LBT members all around us. And for those that aren't quite there yet, many members are extremely close. As time goes by with lapband increasing in popularity and the number of LBT members growing everyday, I believe the list is only going to increase by leaps and bounds. Any and all weight loss is a huge accomplishment for us all. While I realize that many members don't need to lose 100 pounds or more, many do. And for those who do, it offers not only motivation to see that other bandsters have done it...but most importantly it offers the hope that it can be done with the band! This will be a running thread to offer positive motivation, inspiration, hope, and encouragement. Please PM me or post here to have your name added to the growing list when you hit 100 pounds lost, or if you want your amount lost updated. Congratulations to everyone on any and all weight loss!

a dairyfarmers chubbywife 1 Posted April 19, 2011 I guess I should add my name to this list!! I had my surgery on 2-22-10 and I started at 300 pounds. Today, 4-19-11, I am 151 pounds... That's 149 pounds lost!!! My initial goal was to get to 150 pounds, but now that I am here, I am thinking that I might as well go for 13 more pounds so I can say that I have a normal BMI. ~Annette~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
