Default How long have you kept the weight off?

Just wondering how many of you out there have reached your goal and maintained, and for how long? Thanks for your responses!

I haven't quite reached my goal, but I lost around 90 lbs the first year and kept that off for a year. I have now lost about 25 more lbs since the first of the year.

So - - I was banded Feb 2007 - - so 2 years and 3 months. Still losing, haven't gained it back.

September will be 4 years (I think lol) for me, since I got the band. I've maintained my 144 pound loss and am still working on the last 10 pounds but they are stubborn and refuse to move.

a lot of the successful bandsters who have kept the weight off aren't around too much these days -- they are busy, off living life!

Some that come to mind (forgive me for everyone I forget here) are:
Telly
Heather
Neal
Paul
Tammy
Bear
Emileekay
Tricia
and many many others!

and oodles of others -- come on people - jump on here and brag about your success!

Hey Mo-ness. Thanks for the shout out.

I was banded in 2006 and started at 240.. and have reached as of today 121lbs and have kept the weight off...actually lost 10lbs in the past 3 weeks.

I'm out living life as Mo stated but I do check in on occaision.
