No more pity-parties for me!

Nina, that is a great and positive post! I have no doubt that you will continue with your weight loss and be a very successful bander.

I have to just add, I don't really see why banders get so down on themselves. It may not be as fast a weight loss as some of the other options, but still - it's something that you are all working at and that has to be a good thing. The only reason that I didn't go for a band was that I'm extremely squeamish and couldn't bear the thought of the fills and having a 'foreign object' inside me.

Good luck to everyone x

Excellent post Neen. Over a 4 to 5 year period the weight loss for band vs bypass evens out according to beloved surgeon. Here's hoping. I know why I have stalled - it's something to do with ice cream and mashed potatoe (not at the same time I might add). So your post gave me a swift kick up the bum and am now on straight and narrow until Christmas.

So good to see the banders all sharing a new positive attitude It doesnt matter what surgery you have had, or no surgery atall.....its the mind that controls how well we do XX

Glad it's helped you Archiesmum xx
Thanks Jacqui! Hopefully us banders can start getting great losses together with the bypassers now x
