Update!!!

Good morning All,

Just wanted to give a quick update on my progress. I had surgery March 27th and I am happy to report that I am down to 295lbs; a loss of 43lbs. The first time I have been this weight in FOREVER!!!!!! I love my band!! It is not a quick fix and I have to work at it, but for me a lot of it is mental. When I started my journey with Dr. Malley I was 338lbs and a size 28/30. I am now 22/24 with growing bagginess. I will post pics soon. Good luck to everyone, and keep up the good work. If you are struggling just pick yourself up and start again. the only shame is in falling and staying down!

Thanks Ladies!!!

Right now I am not working out per say. I am however working a lot of overtime at work, redecorating my guest bedroom, and I was finishing some classes before graduation. That kept me very busy, and too tired to just sit and unconsciously eat in front of the TV. Also since my first fill, I have been at my sweet spot so far. I cannot eat anything before 9:00 in the morning, and when I do, I make sure it is a half a banana, cereal and a cup of skim milk, and that holds me til lunch. I lost 8lbs in 2 weeks after that first fill. We decided not to do a fill last Monday because I was doing so well at where I was. So I mostly work hard at making sure that I eat when I'm really hungry and not when my mind is bored.

Angelsvoice,

You are the "BOMB"!!!! You are confirmation for me today that I CAN get through the pre-surg liquid diet that I JUST started today. It is really inspiring for me when I hear success stories such as yours. Stay Blessed and congratulations on your weight loss.

Very good!!!! You & I are about the same situation. I am the same size you started at. I can hardly wait, my day is June 17th. It is 3 days before my 15 yr anniversary. I told my hubby it is the absolute best gift ever! He is very supportive & cheering me on.

Keep up the good work. God bless!
