Kim2BSlim Posted August 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 Julie~ Don't beat yourself up sweetie. You are doing great. Just think, without the band you may have gained that 6 lbs a month! I know I would have. My eating was out of control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mom12 Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 I was banded 5/8/08 so 3 months ago today. I have lost 18 lbs since surgery so it averages 6 lbs per month. 8 of them however have been in the last 2 weeks since my 3rd fill and this is the first time I have had restriction. I am pleased with my progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
