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

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!

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.

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!

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.

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.

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

      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?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
