I am so happy the band has changed my life....
I am so happy no matter what diet I have ever tried I have never had any success. The band is giving me little glimpses of what i can accomplish. I have lost 32.5 lbs and I am one day short of my one month anniversary with my band.I am beyond thrilled and so thankful I found this board reading everyones stories is really inspiring.I just want to say Thank you all. Have a great day!
Congrats on becoming a successful bandster. Keep doing what you are doing then expand on what you've learned to enhance your weight loss success. Take care,

Carrie,
It will slow down but we are all different. Soem people have really great weight loss for several weeks after and others have great weight loss for a week or two. I lost 13 pounds in my fors12 post-op but this past week not a pound. Everyone assured me that this is normal. I just hope that as time goes on I average 2 pounds a week. That will give me my 100 pounds for the year.

Congrats on your 32.5 pound loss! That's a lot of weight! Good job!
I'm so glad to hear it's going well for you. I'm happy with my band also and in my case, it just keeps getting better and better as my life opens up and I'm able to do things I only dreamed of before.
Best wishes for continued success.
