I lost almost 100lbs in the first year. Generally I averaged between 7 and 10 lbs per month. Realize that the more you lose and the less you weigh, the slower the weight loss will get.

Due to some family issues late last fall I kind of fell off the 'bandwagon'. I haven't gained anything but haven't lost either. So I've been almost 8 months of maintenance and that has been pretty easy for the most part. I am down to needing to lose the last 20-25lbs before reaching goal so it has become more difficult for me to lose, but to be completely honest, my head just hasn't been in it lately....so sitting at this weight is my own doing.

If you work hard at it and follow the rules you should be able to be down a considerable amount by next spring. Good luck to you !!!

My rate was quite quick in the beginning but has dropped off to a 1-2 pound a week pace now. The ticker tells the story.

You can do it! Your age will work in your favor and if you really are willing to exercise, eat right, and follow the band rules you will be looking great by the wedding. I've lost over 100 lbs. in less than a year and I'm almost twice your age. Good luck.

Some of us lose slower. I have lost over 60 pounds since August, with 20 to go. It's a lot less than 10 pounds a month, but I am delighted to be wearing my size 8 jeans as I type this.

Try your best to make good food choices, and exercise daily. You will look fabulous !!

Congratulations on getting your band !

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
