Allieg8tor 85 Posted October 13, 2013 Well, I'm only 11 days out, but I've lost 12 pounds according to my scale since my surgery date, but it may be off a pound or two, since that's two different scales and two different outfits. I don't think the numbers much matter as long as it's a loss, you know? I'm happy. 1 dylanmiles23 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dgoertz1 120 Posted October 14, 2013 I also have never had a fill. November 6 I wil have been banded 1 year. I reached my goal of 145 in 7 months. But I continued to loose another 10 and then my weight lose just stopped. I started out at 215 so I have lost 80 lbs. My weight fluctuates from 130 to 135. Feel great. Love my lap band with plication. Good luck to everyone on this site. 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NaNa 878 Posted October 14, 2013 i think my band is working fine with no fills (i have a primer but no idea how much) but i also have plication...so the band can work w/o fills........and i dont diet Carolina Girl, Your anotomany is different from us regular bandsters, you are sort of like a Sleeve, (just folding the stomach) but without removing the stomach, so your restriction will be VERY tight from the git-go.... I have not read much long term research on Pilications, there were some mixed reviews on it initially, but it seems like more and more people are getting it, it's good to hear you are doing so well with it.
