Living My Dream everyday

Hi everyone. It has been 3 months short of 2 years since I was banded. I have lost slowly but that has been a good thing as I am not as saggy as I thought I would be. I am still going to Curves and that is helping firm up muscles as I lose the fat. My body is emerging out of the fat layers I was hidden beneath. Who knew I would ever find a slim body after being overweight for at least 25 years. I have always had a weight problem and was a size 16 then went down to a size 12 in high school. I am in size 14 now and loving every minute of it. I am revamping my whole wardrobe, donating the big sizes as I pass them on the way down I still can't believe I am actually doing this. It is exciting to get dressed now instead of dreading it. I used to worry about what to wear especially if I was going out somewhere special. Now I look forward to finding another outfit I can now wear again. I kept all the sizes as my weight increased and hoped that someday I would wear my smaller clothes again. It seemed like a pipe dream and as I got older seemed less and less possible. Now the smallest clothes that I saved are getting baggy. I love, love, love it.

I would so recommend lapband to anyone struggling with obesity. Lapband is so easy compared to the old invasive weight loss surgeries. :biggrin:
