Down 74.4 lbs! Yes I count the .4 lb~~~62% of Excess Weight Gone Forever!!

:crying:I feel so blessed that I heard about the band and went forward with the surgery. Down 74.2 lbs with only 26 lbs to go to get to my goal weight and not quite 7 mos into the program.

I have lost over 62% of my excess body weight!

And I have managed to keep fairly toned by going to the Gym and Walking!

The Hospital Administrator called me for permission to share my photos and story in a Medical Journal that they publish in and I told her YES! I just hope that my story will inspire and help others who are struggling with weight issues in their lives!

God Bless you as you continue on this journey is my prayer!

Congratulations, I'm right behind you with 69 lbs gone in 6 months - what a miracle, right! What fun you're story will be in the medical journal. Amazing how life can change in just a few months.
