One Month Post - Op

So far so good! I was a little disappointed that I'd only lost 4.5 lbs in a month....BUT I had no restriction. My Dr. said I should be happy with that. :redface: I just put a lot of pressure on myself and expected more. *sigh*   Total weight loss since my 2 week pre-op diet until yesterday - 21 lbs. I cant complain too much! Thats -21 lbs in 6 weeks. I can definetly see a difference. My shirts are too big and I've began belting all of my pants just to keep them up. (What a change!!)

BANDED................... ...Finally!!!!

After a LONG 8 mos wait......im BANDED!!!

A New Beginning

Its time for change. Im SO ready for this.
