Tracie in Aledo, Texas So glad to hear everyone is doing so well!!!

It's so nice to log on here and hear all the wonderful results everyone is having! Really helps I think to keep spirts high and our reasons for having this surgery postive. It was a gift and one I am so happy to have been given. Thank you Dr. A you rock!

It is encouraging to know how people are doing. I was getting sort

of

blue because I didn't see the scales move every day. But yesterday

was

my 3-month bandiversary and I did my weight/measurement check-in and

actually was surprised to see a difference in the numbers from one

month ago. I'd lost 10# in a month -- which is considered good weight

loss -- and quite a few more inches in various spots. I've lost 7.5 "

in

my hips since banding, which seems incredible when I think about it.

So

my spirits lifted and I'm just gonna keep plugging away at it with

the

band's help. It WILL happen!
