EmmaWang 0 Posted March 24, 2009 Congradulations! I, too, have lost over 100 lbs. I was banded 8 months 14 days ago. Isn't it a great feeling, almost hard to believe. I never thought I could be in a size 12! Even in my teenage years, the smallest I ever was was a 14. I LOVE MY BAND!!!!!! WOW. You both did an amazing job. How did you do it? To lose 108 lbs in just 8.5 months? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lapbandbarb 0 Posted March 24, 2009 Thanks for the compliment. Yes, I did lose it quick but it was not always easy! I struggled with "banster hell" at the beginning but once I was restricted, the weight melted off. My whole mindset towards food seemed to change with restriction and I have never been so healthy and happy. You are doing great so far! Best of luck to everyone!

I am only losing like 1 lb each week since last week, even though I was still on liquid diet last week. That really frustrated me coz I was so hungry all the time, yet I ate nothing but was not losing weight. I am glad to hear that after reaching a good restriction, the weight would start to melt off. Do you exercise everyday and a lot? I am only walking (slow walking) about 25 minutes each day coz I still feel the soreness to my left of bellybutton sometimes. I wonder if that is where my port is.
