Bensmum1109 0 Posted September 24, 2005 Hello all- I just weighed myself for the first time since I was banded (9/16) and I have lost 8 pounds!! I'm realistic- I know the first week is kind of a bonus because I really didn't feel like eating (or should I say drinking) anything for the first 3 or 4 days after the surgery. But I still feel like I made the right decision and I am on my way to a healthier life. Only 13 pounds until I am under the dreaded 200 mark. If my tummy didn't still hurt so much I would go out right now and run around the block Have a wonderful day, everyone!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

idahomoon 0 Posted September 25, 2005 Way to knock down the pounds. You're on the right path!! Doesn't it feel good!!! It's amazing to me how much better the weight loss itself feels than the desire to retreat back to old habits. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
