October Bandsters how much weight have you lost so far?

[alicat3924 0]

Just thought I would start a thread to compare weight loss since my October 18th surgery.

My questions are:

When in October was your surgery?

How much weight have you lost so far?

How many fills have you had?

How much/what type of exercise are you doing?

I think it will be fun to see the results of how we October bandsters are doing!

My Info:

Surgery Date: October 18, 2006

Including the pre-liquid diet I am down 36 lbs

I have Had 1 Fill so far, I go for my second on January 18th

I am walking about 4 miles a day for now

Surgery Oct. 4th / 31lbs. lost / 1 fill / Sadly, not much exercise. Had knee surgery on Dec. 7th. This is my first day off the crutches. Though I must say, crutches can be an exercise, especially when you're hauling around 220 plus pounds.... LOL Can't wait to see how everyone's doing. Haven't been around much since I had the knee done, so I'm pretty much out of touch. I hope everyone had a blessed Christmas and let's knock 2007 out of the park. Take care Band Buddies..........Need to update the ole ticker.

oct 26th/28.5 pounds lost (i was down to 31 for 1 brief second)/ 1 fill - 1.5 cc in a 4 cc bad, i need to go back but waiting for a little more cash.

not as much exercise in the las couple of weeks. need to get back to walking and using my elliptical. cleaning the house and searching for a differnet job seem to be my daily exercise routines lately. time for me to stop whining and get walking. =)

Oct. 5/ 28lbs/ 2 fills (second one due to getting really sick, dr. said all the vomiting moved my stomach just enough to need a fill.) I've been on a plateau since early Dec.

No exercise so I guess I can't really complain.

I was banded on October 26. I have lost 45 pounds so far. I have had 2 fills. I joined the gym this weeks. I have been 3 times so far. Last night I did the bike for 60 minutes and walked for 12. I have a blister on the bottom of one of my toes, so I didn't walk as long as I wanted to. The night before last I rode the bike for 45 minutes and walked for 45 minutes.

I am bound and determined to get this fat off me!!!!!!!!!!! lol
