Donna113 2 Posted August 26, 2008 I wish I was as relaxed about weight loss as you... it's driving me nuts that my weight loss has pretty much stalled since the first couple of weeks post surgery. Tomorrow will be 6 weeks since banding and I've only managed to lose between 11 - 14 lbs depending on which day I step on the scale.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lotzasunshine 2 Posted August 27, 2008 YAY!! Finally broke out of the funk I was in and have now reached the lowest I have been since surgery! I was having such a hard time right before my first fill and gained about 5 lbs. I think I am on my way!!:thumbup::thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maudie 0 Posted August 30, 2008 Congratulations to all you losers!!!! I am down 40lbs from the start of this Quest on July 1st. I was banded on July 22nd. I will get my first fill, maybe, on Sept. 10th. I have not been hungry or sick. I feel as though something has clicked on in my brain....finally! That is where weight loss starts for all of us. It looks like July was a great month for banding! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crzytchr 3 Posted August 30, 2008 Well, I weighed this morning and I am down 29 lbs in 6 weeks and 2 SIZES SMALLER IN MY BLUE JEANS!!!! Can you tell I care more about my size than the weight loss?!:smile: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Donna113 2 Posted August 31, 2008 I'm STILL stalled on my weight loss. Hopefully when I get my 2nd fill next Tuesday, it will help me eat less. I am exercising almost daily (have had to take today off because my knee is killing me) but I think my calories are on the high side.... 1200 - 1500 a day. At least I'm not gaining and even though the scales haven't moved in weeks, my clothes are getting just a tad bit looser. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It sounds like you are maybe replacing fat with muscle. AND, I see you are in "ONEDERLAND"!!!! How awesome! Congratulations:thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mamanmidwife 0 Posted September 1, 2008 Down 19lbs in 4 weeks. I'm happy, but I'm starting @ the Y and also starting a couch to 5K. I still feel I eat to much @ a sitting and hoping my second fill helps with that, but I can't complain because the scale keeps moving in the right direction just slowly.
