Well my heavist weight was 220lbs and I'm 5'0" I had my surgery on 12/29/10 and had 2 fills since then. I'm down to 193 as of this morning. I don't regret getting banded and I'm happy with my success so far. You'll have some days where you get depress especially when you think you should have lost more weight than you have. But like you said already everyone is different. Good luck with your journey!
Starting Weight: 220 lbs
Surgery Weight:12-29-10 215 lbs
1st Fill: 2-7-11/202 lbs/2.5 cc
2nd Fill: 3-7-11/197 lbs/4 cc
1st Un-Fill: 6-13-11/184 lbs/3.75 cc - was too tight
3rd Fill: 2-6-12/172 lbs/4.5 cc
4th Fill: 4-9-12/ 182 lbs/4 cc

Collins33- I would say you are right on target. Mr doctor said I should loose 2 pounds a week. You are doing a little more than that!! So GOOD for you!!
