2 Months Out Today.



Recommended Posts

:whoo: I have made it to 2 months out today! woot. It seems like just yesterday I was attending the Seminar and going through all the motions to just get approved. As of today I have lost 40 lbs. 5 were last month, Not as good as I anticipated but 40 lbs is outstanding:scared: I feel a million times better. Eating is no different then when I wasnt banded, other then that fact that I eat much less then before. Its great! I love my band!:kiss2:

:whoo:That is wonderful. My two months will be on the 21st. I have only lost about 17 lbs, but have lost more inches than I expected. I hope to be under 200 soon. I started at 219 and am now 202. I had my first fill about two weeks ago and now I feel like I might need another. i'll wait after Thanksgiving. :clap2:Happy for you!!

Yeah...today is my 2 month bandiversary! I'm down to about 285-286 ( I need to update my ticker). That puts me at a loss of 44-45 pounds! Woot! I've got another fill Tuesday, so hopefully that will do more damage! Woot!

I noticed yesterday, I pushed myself harder at the gym...and I seemed to have lost a pound. Could be mental...so we'll see tonight!

I feel really bad, I was banded 9/5/07 and only lost 5lbs. I have been very patient with my dr. but he is really getting on my nerves. I got a little restriction on 11/12/07, and hoping that it will finally give me enough restriction to lose the weight. He doesn't tell his pateints how much fill he puts just to be patient. and I have, but reading this thread is fustrating!

Hi. I'm at two months today too. I was wondering if the 'pre' surgery weight is included in everyone's totals? I've lost 14 since surgery but 30 before, so I don't know how I fit in..? Right now I don't feel like I even have a band! I've had one fill and looking forward to my next one on 12-14.

I am also two months out. I got my second fill today. My first fill I got 3cc's, and today they gave me another 3cc's and it was too tight-- i couldn't drink a cup of water- so they took out 1 cc. So now I am at 5.

I was 300lbs at original consultation, and 280 by surgery date, and now 264. It seems that I am slower than most who post here. But it's coming.

Redgirl, I'm shocked that your doctor won't tell you how much he is putting in your band. That is something you need to know in case of an emergency. I would insist that he tell, if it were me.

Congrats SheShe! You're doing great. It does seem that time has passed rather quickly, hopefully we all will be at goal weight before we know it. Keep up the good work.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
