How much have you lost????

I'm really tickled with my 35 pounds so far. I've been off work since surgery on 6/20. They don't have any "light duty" positions at work and since the Doc said not to lift over 20 pounds until atleast the 6th week, I've enjoyed being the "lady of the mansion" lol But I'm sure when I go back to work Monday, I'll run a few pounds off pretty quick. So hopefully that scale will continue to drop. Ain't life grand..... Hugs, Sherry

-62lbs

My BMi has gone from 41 to about 35. On surgery day, i was 255, and today I'm 222. (I am not including pre-surgery weight loss.) Haven't taken measurements again.

Wow!!! You have all done so well. Congratulations I am new on this board also. I had my surgery on June 14th 2006 and here are the reults. starting weight 339 weight today 285 total loss 54 lbs I to was on a platue for a long time seemed like it was at least 3 to 4 weeks. I get so frustrated and wonder why I bothered. But fortunatly the weight has started to move again. Hang in there Girls your all doing FANTASTICO!!!!

Sometimes I read these and I think OOOOH, I'm not doing as good as ___, but I'm doing better than _____. Terrible habit of mine, always comparing myself I will admit though, it helps me feel better to know I am in the right range. Currently May 2006: 308 lbs June 8 (surgery): 303 lbs Today: 259 lbs Goal (I think): 166 lbs. 93 lbs to go. I am now the size I was six years ago...wow.

Pre-surg. - 276 Day of surg. - 265 TODAY - 226 and feeling GREAT!!! June of 2006 is etched in my memory forever

Hi everyone, I have had a really bad time getting enough protein and in, so I am afraid some of my weight loss is muscle mass. I had a stricture stretched a couple of weeks back, but still have a lot of bad days. At any rate, I have had an amazing weight loss and immeasurable health benefits (I did the stairs at work without my heart pounding today). Here are my stats so far: Weight at surgery - 291 Current weight - 219 BMI at surgery - 50.1 Current BMI - 38.8 I've lost track of inches lost, but I am definitely losing everywhere EXCEPT my cup size . That is one of the main places I would like to lose. I've gone down 8 inches in the band size but the cup remains at G. Aargh! Congratulations to all of you on your hard won efforts. Lori

I'd like to know how the lap band Junbies are doing.
