What was anyones weight when banded...

[debpaige 35]

I was only 190 pounds when I was banded. I was banded almost 3 weeks ago.. Now I'm currently 172... I'm only 5'2 and my doctors set my goal for 125 .. So I still got a ways to go. I feel GREAT! Was in liquids for the first 2 weeks now on soft and next week regular. I'm adjusting wonderfully. Hopefully the sleep apnea will go way and my cholesterol will go back to 170 instead of years of it being 250... And I get off my blood pressure meds..... That will really be my accomplishment then of course the new smaller me;)))

I was 209lbs when I was banded and that was after my pre-op diet where I lost about 6 lbs.

I'm 5'4" and got to 154lb in 7 months, to 118lbs after another year (which my dr thought was too thin, and I think he was right even though I didn't think so at the time), then forced myself up to 130lbs and stayed there for about 2 years when I sprung a leak.

My leak's been fixed, I'm 144lbs now but most importantly I have BFP of 19%, so I actually think I'm almost at my perfect size.

I think I was somewhere between 315-325? It's been awhile so the numbers are fuzzy. I know I was 325 at my highest weight.

I was 198.8 (as close to 200 as I wanted to get) I am now 155.. about 30 lbs from my goal..I am 5' nothing..I feel like a new person already can't imagine how much better I will feel at 125.. no diabetes meds. blood pressure normal.. checking my bloodwork next week go back to my primary physician... I hope they are pleasantly surprised.

When I started this process, I weighed 296. (i'm 6 feet) When I started the Pre-op diet, I had lost 6 pounds on my own. I then lost about 15 more on the Pre-op diet. Three months post-op and I now weigh 252. At my highest weight, I was 311 and I was terrified I would be there again or higher.

Not banded yet, but currently 263 as of this morning. Surgery is in 3 weeks but ive been making better choices the last year preparing for the insurance and stuff. I was 290 when I started the process so I've lost a few pounds the last month or so, my surgery was supposed to be June 24th so I was on liquids for a while but then it was switched to the 22nd. Anyways, my goal is 145 but my Dr. wants me at 126, I'm 5'4. :D

I was 204 before surgery on 05/01/2013 for my consultation, which was not my highest of 212 a few months before that. Day of surgery 06/13/2013 I was 194, and today currently teetering between 188 and 189 depending on night or morning, but have lost more inches than pounds. I am 5'2, oddly enough I didn't get a goal weight from the doctor yet? However I am goaling towards 135, but I am sure from others who are roughly about my height, that will be lower for the doctors goal for me.
