Notinks 91 Posted October 30, 2015 Congratulations! You'll do fine and you'll make it way below your goal of 190! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gebbiabn 34 Posted October 31, 2015 That was probably my goal when I had the Lapband. I'm at 270 right now, and my surgeon said I should lose 100lbs in the first year and another 20-30 during the second year?!? I can't even imagine myself down to around 140-150. ????????

I started at 272 and was down exactly 100 lbs the day of my one year anniversary! I am 14 lbs below my lowest after the lap band. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
