WOW here I am. I had the stomach band in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico on October 23,2010. Great normal post op course no issues.
My weight dropped off quickly postop with the liquid diet now has evened off significantly to 1-2 pounds a week. I had my first "overfill" last week. That was an adventure to say the least.
I am down 50lbs with most of that being in the first two months. I definitely feel way better and healthier, just really need to get back into working out and i know that will help me immensely. Hard to find a consistent time to do it, when i know i wont have to fight off a skinny person for a treadmill.
