Hey guys I just wanted to get together with more people my age that got the band. Thanks

I'm not 20, ahhh to be 20 again....I digress, just wanted to say congrats on taking charge of your weight at such an early age. I wish I would have started sooner.

[sHeLLaBee 130]

Congrats! Wish I, too, would have started sooner. I'm 33 and now I feel 20! No regrets. Enjoy your new life. =)

Thanks ladies! I am on day 8 and I feel great! How long have you both had the band? I'm trying to figure this website out.. at first I only had it on my phone so now I actually have a picture:)

I'm 20 and I got the band in August of 2012 congrats on being banded!

[CaGottaBand 498]

I haven't been banded yet. I'm on my six month diet right now. Hopefully I'll have my surgery early this summer...fingers crossed.

It is worth the proceeds. I wish I had considered it earlier in life!

[SkinnyCubanChick 150]

Me too! I'm 55 but am starting to feel the energy of 30! Let you know when I reach 20!

Awesome! How's it going for you? have you made any of your goals?

[Sheylbe 1]

Awesome!! Thanks ladies for the support! I seriously hope that I'm successful at this... I have been reading a lot of failure stories. :/ scary!

It wasn't going as well as I'd hoped. I lost 25 pounds but then I stopped losing and I didn't have any restriction. But I just got my second fill and I am already feeling the difference. I have restriction and I'm losing weight don't worry about the failures...I freaked myself out reading those. There are so many successes. And we're both young and I have a feeling the odds are in our favor because of it

It seems like that's a common trend. Losing about 25 lbs then a small plateau until the next fill. Do you work out? How strict is your diet? Sorry... Lots of questions
