finallytime got a reaction from mariag in Before and After pictures?
Funny as I just posted progress pics earlier this evening ... I am 6 months out and 1/2 way there but this is the 6 month mark for me. Make sure you take pics monthly so you can see the difference and enjoy the journey

finallytime got a reaction from parisshel in Help please read this means the world to me
First dr I went to would only do bypass on me so i left. Second dr highly recommended bypass for all the reasons you mentioned. He did perform the band on me as I told him I knew I could do it and wasn't taking the risks associated with bypass. I will let you know that I remind him monthly how well I am doing . Just Monday I had my 6 month visit where I am down 68lbs and still no fills!!! You got this. Find the dr you believe in and more importantly find a dr that believes in you!! And believe in yourself!!

finallytime reacted to ☠carolinagirl☠ in Who was the toughest person you decided to tell about getting the band?
myself......because if i did end up getting the surgery, i knew i would have to change everything from what i ate, what i did and didnt do to my attitude....telling myself that my fat lazy woe is me and blame everyone but myself life as i knew it was coming to an end......i am sure that is not the answer you wanted, but it was the one i wanted to give as its true..

I am one year out down from 215 to 145! 20 more pounds to go but only 5 pounds away from my doctors goal!
The first two is before
And the last two are after
Good luck

finallytime got a reaction from ☠carolinagirl☠ in fitbit
Also look at the UP by jawbone. I like it because you wear as a Bracelet. The fitbit was too small for me, I'd lose it

finallytime got a reaction from 2muchfun in 6 months in and no regrets!!
Had my 6 month check up today and down 68lbs since preop began on 12/3! And that included a few really bad weeks of work and personal travel where I gained about 7lbs, but lost them again . Even RAN a 3.5 mile race last week in NY. Wasn't fast or necessarily pretty but I did it!!!! This is the best decision I have ever made for myself!
