Hi Klynn. I was banded on Jan 9, 2006. July 9th will be my 6 month bandiversary.

I started my pre-op diet on Dec 22nd at 307 pounds. Lost 16 pounds prior to surgery. As of yesterday, I've lost 75.5 pounds.. now 231.5. My goal is to hit 90 pounds by July 9th. I started in a size 26 pants and 4x tops. I am now wearing size 16 jeans and 2x tops.

You've done an awesome job yourself! :clap2:

You Are Amazing Really Amazing We Were Banded The Same Day And I Am Not Were Near Your Success Mark I Have Only Lost 50 Lbs And Pretty Much No Sizes I Still Were The Same Ones I Can Fit The Size Smaller But I Still Wear My Old Clothes They Are Much Bigger And Once Were Probably Tight And I Was In Denial But Was It After The First How Many Did You Really Start Loosing Sizes Or Was It Gradual??

Well thanks Klynn, but if you take into account that I lost 16 pounds prior to sugery, that means I've lost 59.5 pounds since then. Which is only 9.5 pounds more than you! Surprise!! You are doing awesome too!! *big smiles*

By the time I was ready to wear jeans again, after surgery, my 24s were too big! I couldn't even wear them prior to surgery. Then it seems to have dropped a size about every month? I think? :cool:
