I just wanted to post an update on my journey because I think reading those of others is what helped me the most during my 6 month pre-op diet and exercise that I needed for insurance. As of today, I have lost 47 pounds since my 2 week liquid pre-op diet or 30 since surgery. I completed week 4, day 2 of a couch to 5k app. I am running/jogging, not just walking, or "speed walking" and not just run/jog for a couple seconds and walk, I am going for 5 minutes at a time! Something I wouldn't have ever dreamed of before surgery. My clothes are practically falling off. Yesterday, even my gym/yoga pants were falling off when I was running. CRAZY! I have so much more energy than I used to, but at the same time, I sleep so much better than I used to. I'm a teacher and I have parents of my kiddos from last year coming up to me and telling me how great I look. I honestly have no regrets and I am so glad that I chose to have this surgery.

Glad to hear your good news!  I'm still on the fence, I'm scheduled for October 21, 2014.  I would be a revision, I'm told weight loss after a revision is much slower and much different than the lapband.  Keep up the great work!
