Re: [BandedTogether]

Sandy,


I heard of patient's having a slow start with the weight coming off,
it depends on the amount of saline that the Dr. puts in your band at
the time you have your adjustment. I started off with only loosing 40
pounds in my first year. I then lost the other 45 pounds this year.
You have to gradually get to your "sweet spot" is what they call it
for you to have steady weight lost. I have the large band and it took
several fills for me to get to the point where I am averaging about 7-
10 pounds per month.
