Domika03 309 Posted October 17, 2012 Hi there, I don't have any pics other than my profile pic. Notice I'm "hiding" behind trees? LOL. Looking forward to not hiding anymore. My weight the day of surgery was 244. I had it done on 8/17/12, so almost 2 months ago to the day. As of today, I weigh 217. It's been quite the journey thus far, and I can't wait to get under the 200 pd mark. Feel free to view my bog with honest comments about my journey so far. I wish you the best on the 31st. I'm sure you'll do great. Make sure you have the essentials for after surgery: Protein powder, broth, SF Jello, SF pudding, heating pad (my friend), and gas ex (as you'll be burping like a sailor)... 1 DesertRose80 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

icestorm12132008 39 Posted October 17, 2012 Hi sure: Weight before surgery 317lbs. Height 5 ft 8 inches surgery date: 12/13/11 current wt: 245.5lbs. loss of 71.5lbs. What helpes me is taking my MD advice as far as diet and hydration are key, if you don't drink you won't loose. Also working out is essential even an hour a day of cardio at a moderate level works wonders for getting the weight off. See your MD monthly and be honest about what is working and what is not so the can fill/unfill you apropriately . You need to eat to loose if your not eating right you won't loose if your band is to tihg. Take your weight loss in 10 pound incriments it helps then to look at omg...i have xxx. of weight to loose . It helps you to stay focoused on your goal. Also as you start dropping the weight get yourself a good belt you are going to need it because for many that first fifty pounds comes off quicker then we think. come in for support groups if that is your thing and be honest with yourself. and remember it did not all come on at once it won't all come off at once either. 2 Domika03 and DesertRose80 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
