HALF WAY

By Fleur

· 282 views

There were times when I didn't think I'd make it but this morning I weighed in at 88.2kg which is a total loss of 19kg's and exactly half way to my goal of 69kg. I thought I celebrate by taking me measurements which are:

Bust 105cm - down .5cm on last measure

Waist 92cm - down 1cm

Hips 120.5cm - down 1 cm

I compared that to the measurements I took 9 days before the band and I've lost 10cm off my bust, 13.5cm off my waist and a big 17.5cm from my hips......feeling a bit smug I am....

 

Now my weight loss is quite noticable especially to people who haven't seen me in a while. I made a very deliberate decision to tell people the truth about my weight loss. I want everyone to know that the band is the reason I am finally able to deal with my weight problem. Who knows it may just help someone make the decision to have the band themselves. I know if I had known a successful bandster I probably would have had it much sooner.
