Topic: RE: date of surgery and weight lost
9 weeks out and by my home scales I've lost 70 pounds.
I am going to lose more but frankly, if I didn't lose another pound the surgery would still have been completely worth it.
I was huge and getting to the can't walk stage of SMO. I may not set the world on fire in the movement category but I'm a far cry from where I was.
RNY is the greatest!

Topic: RE: Sept, 06 lapbands
I was banded on Sept. 12th and have lost 25 lbs. so far. I have been at this loss for the past 3 weeks. I did not do well during Halloween with all the candy in the house. My 2nd fill is scheduled for Dec. 13th. Hopefully I will feel some restriction.
Thanks for posting this question. Janet

Topic: RE: I want rootbeer and Bread
I'm craving soda too!! BADLY!! I've tried to let it get flat but that's just to gross for me! I don't like the taste. I've had a sip of Diet Dr. Pepper and I could feel the carbination in my stomach. I couldn't deal with it. So I have stayed away!!

I made the Light Banana Bread from www.bariatriceating.com, and it was absolutely delicious! My husband couldn't tell it wasn't "real."
