DonHoll1 0 Posted November 15, 2007 At three months i had lost about 35 pounds. I did not have to do a pre-op diet so it was all after banding. I am at 43 pounds lost now. It is slowing down but still coming off. I love this band. Donna Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NanaRenan 0 Posted November 15, 2007 Argh! I so happy for all of you who are really pulling it off, but pea-green with envy! Yesterday was three months for me and I have lost 23 lbs. (The rest was lost pre-op). My body is just fighting me, fighting me, fighting me!!! It's SO aggravating! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SPEBSQSAlady 0 Posted November 16, 2007 It was 3 months for me last Tuesday. Sure wish I had the weight loss others have had, but after years of obesity I will take what I can get. I do not exercise either and I know that would help a lot. I am taking it 10 pounds at a time and sure wish I could break the "4" for 40 now. Getting closer.

Cascavel 0 Posted November 16, 2007 Tomorrow is the three month mark since the start of my pre-op diet, and I've lost about 95 pounds so far. Before you get too excited you should realize that I still want to lose about the same as a lot of your starting weights! :omg: I haven't had a fill yet since my progress has been steady and I haven't really been hungry (I have seen my doctor, though, and they agreed no fill for now). I still get full on 3/4 cup or so of food. The only thing that has given me problems so far is fresh veggies -- don't think I chewed them well enough. The only thing I've given up 100% is carbonated beverages, though I try to limit my sweets to 1 or 2 special occasions a week. I can already feel a big difference in that it's easier to move around and such, and I've lost 2 pants sizes, but I still don't see it in the mirror all that much. The Band works if you do your part!

A lot less 1 Posted November 16, 2007 35 lbs so far ( 3rd month). I have my 3rd fill 12/4 and I hope I've lost at least 5-10 more lbs. The 2nd fill didn't give me any restriction I guess cause I had lost 6lbs and the dr thought I was doing good. I am going to tell him that I am always hungry, but I'm trying hard to eat (trying, but not always) right and I exercise 5 days a wk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
salsa1877 10 Posted November 18, 2007 I lost 50 pounds in 3.5 months. My doctor said that was very rare though. He said they consider losing 50 pounds in one year a success. So even though some of us have lost substantially more, if you go by what he said, you would be on track if you have only lost 12.5 pounds. I don't think most people (or anyone) would be happy with that, but just food for thought. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

princesst 0 Posted November 20, 2007 princesst: wow! 71lbs! congratulations! whats your exercise routine like? what was your starting weight? how tall are you? sorry for the barrage of questions. were about the same age (im 26) and i just want to compare, i guess? thanks in advance! Dave01 adn KarenG. - congratulations! such an inspiration! Hello! I started out weighing 298.2lbs and I am currently 223.0lbs (75.2lbs as of today). I am 27 years old and 5'4". I have maybe worked out once or twice a week during these past 3 months, but have now committed my self to working out about 4-5 days a week. I think most of my success is contributed to the fact that I watch my carbs-I don't eat any bread, Pasta, or rice. I also measure all of my food before I eat it. It takes me 20-30 minutes to eat my 3oz meal. It is so inspiring to see everyone do so well!! Princesst Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
