My Journey

I was 280 Ibs and received Lapband on 3/27/08. Today I got on the scale and I am 180 that is 100 Ibs I can't believe it!! I started out in a size 24 now I am in a 14-16! I haven't had any problems except for some reflux but I would do it all again. I still have 35 more go the reach my goal. I will get there but it's a very so process.

Congrats! I too started n the 208's and I am about to the 180's and from a 24 to a 14-16. I too have a 145 goal.

Isn't it amazing? Picking up clothes that never look like they will fit and they end up being the perfect size. I still haven't gotten used to seeing a size 14 on things I buy.

You are an inspiration. Keep up the great work.
