nikki c 16 Posted July 29, 2012 I was banded 6/27/11 and I've lost 86 pounds so far, 33 from goal. I've had no problems with my band. The shake stage is very hard, but once you start losing you become addicted to it... Its easier for me to say no to food because I know I'll lose weight by not eating it. Gl!

whitneyrenees 17 Posted July 29, 2012 Everyone is doing great! I've lost 18lbs post op and it's been a month and 4 days since surgery! And I lost 18 pre op, so I'm excited to report that I've lost 36 pounds in about two months! Hoping to loose 14 more by the time I start my last semester of college in three weeks! 1 goddesscordelia reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fritzy1980 25 Posted August 12, 2012 I was banded March 11, 2011. I'm down 108lbs, only 54 more to my goal. I haven't had any abnormal band issues. In Nov 2011 I had a small amount of fill removed for my wedding day, but had it put back in before the honeymoon. I recently had to have my fill cut back due to heart burn. That is the worst problem I've had. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
