[caligal 0]

Hi everyone, I was banded on 09/07/07. I really wanted to share my wight victory with all of you; I am now in ONEDERLAND.

I weighed in at 198.2 this morning. My beginning weight was 245.

That is a loss of more than 45 pounds :eek:

How long did it take for you to lose your weight? My goal weight is 125-140.

so I have around 70 more pounds to go.

Teresa,

It had been a long time since I had weighed in Onederland too. It IS a good feeling. Cheers for you.

I love being a onelander. I'm currently at about 189. I can't wait for the 170's.

I am feeling the same as you caligal I am at 198.5 as of about 5 mins. ago. I started the journy at 226 in Dec. I am debating another fill. What size is your band and much fill do you have? I have a 10cc band with 3cc in I believe.

Good Morning!!

I have been banded for over a year (Feb 5)

I'm in ONEDERLAND as well,

I started at 250

Currently at 183

First few months were my most rapid loss, from there on it has been terribly slow.........if I average it out...about half a pound every 2 months

I'm fighting to hold on to my 183 (I've been as low as 180, for a day!!!)

I have about 50 more to go... my fill is at 4.4 in a 4cc band. So I think anything I get below 180 will be excellent!!!

I love my band

I never could keep the weight off without it.

Good luck to all my fellow 40's

I am a 10cc band and have 4.5cc in it. I am scheduled for another fill in mid-March.

I would get another fill. If it gets too tight the doctor can always take someout.

Do you feel like you are at your sweet spot?
