Doddie63 6 Posted February 17, 2007 Hi Robyn: I am fron the boonies North Vancouver, BC. I can't seem to find many people banded out here so I thought "what the hey, I try and hook up with someone from another province and see how they are making out." Afraid I am an older bandster. 63, retired, married and love to travel. I was 299 when banded and now 268. When my weight goes down, I think the airplane seats will be more comfortable.

msrobby73 0 Posted February 17, 2007 Way to go Dodie- 30lbs is 30lbs. I havent sat in an airplane since oct and even then the seat belt was pretty snug. Hopefully next time it is better. Keep up the good work Robyn:D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Doddie63 6 Posted February 17, 2007 Hi everyone. Weighed in this morning and stayed the same all week even though I ate less than a 1,000 calories a day (post op diet still). However never exercised and the scale outed me. LOL, my hubby lost 4 lbs last week and he wasn't dieting just trying not to eat in front of me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
