I was banded on 8-24-07. I have lost about 53.5 lbs so far. I should have lost a lot more by now but I have just recently started exersicing! I am currently at 220 and cannot wait to get under 200. I am hoping to amp up my almost non existing work out routine and reach that goal by the middle/end of May. I was having an incredibly difficult time sticking to 900 calories that I am supposed to be eating each day. I think I was eating closer to 1200 and on really bad days 1400 but after my last fill which was on 2-29-08 I have started eating smoothies more and more and I have dropped 16.5 lbs. My husband bought me the magic bullet which works wonderfully and it really helps with portion control. I make my slim fast shakes in the bullet and I also make fresh fruit smoothies that taste delicious. I will get around to posting some of the recipes. Well, I better get off here but I will try to write more soon.
