Who would have thought-and unfill!

[Guest guest]

Hey Bandster Family,

I thought I would check in a say Hello and give an update.

I reached my goal back around my year anniversary in July. I originally set a goal of 140 lbs. I started at 210 lbs. I only had 3 fills and have been at a wonderful "Sweet Spot" for most of the last year. This morning I weighed myself and was down to 125 lbs. My husband has been teasing me about my bones sticking out and I realized I could keep going and going and going. I love the feeling of no hunger I have made a conscious attempt to get all my protein, etc but my weight keeps dropping. No diet ever worked this great!

So, this morning I went in for an unfill. I had 1.8 taken out of the band and so far so good. I get only a little hungry and am eating small amounts. I love this band. The beauty of the situation is that if I do gain a little weight I can have the band tightened a little. What an awesome tool.

I never thought I would get to a point where I would be satisfied and not want to lose anymore weight. The band is a miracle.

For anyone in the Seattle area I went to see Kitty Carmichael in Arlington, WA. She found my port without a problem and the whole expereince was excellent. She gave my husband a fill last week and only charges $150. I love that price!

I want to thank you all for your support and advice over this past year. You have all been my inspiration. I learn from your successes and trials. I am so glad to be able to type again (broken knuckle is better) and hope to be more vocal and supportive of you all from now on.

I appreciate you all!
