Banded on May 2 and have lost an average of 1 pound a day. Started at 300 and now this morning at 256.5. Best move of my life.

feeling pretty good myself! Glad to hear about your pound a day!!! Are you on regular food yet? Have you started getting hungry??? I can't belive I only took in about 600 calories yesterday and I was ok with that :thumbup:

So how are things going for you about 1 month out?????????? I'm excited for you and me :cool2:

I got banded on May 7th.:thumbup: I'm feeling so much better. Every week is a new hurdle that I've jumped. I'm starting to eat scrambeld eggs, american cheese, string cheese, and Slim Fast. I had a can of tuna for the first time yesterday. It was so good.

I'm still a little sore and I have to sleep on my back. Will I ever be able to sleep on my side again?

Thanks so much for your responses. I am definately a happy camper. Weight loss has slowed down since moving into solid foods but appetite has not increased any at all. Had my first fill on May 28th and still doing very well. In fact I have not felt this good in five years. I am now able to button my suit jackets and will have to have them replaced probably next month. They are looking very baggy on me now. I am not complaining. In fact I love buying new clothes.
