JeninCO 0 Posted May 8, 2007 In the past twenty years, I've only steadily gained weight, no matter what diet I was on, how much I exercised - I would lose 10 pounds, then gain back 15; lose 20, gain 30...all very quickly and never changing really my eating habits. Since I was banded I've lost 12 pounds and I can't remember the last time I felt such hope! I know it doesn't sound like a lot, but this is huge for me. I haven't lost 12 pounds in 10 years! I am so excited! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FELICIA17 0 Posted May 9, 2007 That's great. To the average person that would not seem like a big deal, but for one of "us" to lose 12lbs, and good lord, KEEP it off!!! That's enough to jump for joy.. keep up the good work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
