Congrats! Great NSV!

Congrats! You are truly inspirational!

Congrats and this is an awesome testimony!

41 lbs is a lot of weight and you can see the difference. Keep up the good work!

Again all, thanks so much! I feel like a new person and the goal of my post was to inspire others that if journal your food, eat lean Protein first, drink Water and get 30 minutes of some type of body movement daily. Also, the number 1 reason for my Lapband success is that for the first 12 months I saw my Lapband Surgeon monthly and now at goal I see him quarterly and he makes certain he provides me with the tools to succeed! This has not been an easy journey but I love this new body and the second chance at living a healthy life!

Congrats!

Thanks everyone for the well wishes and I have to say that I feel amazing, and I love everything about the new me. I have changed so much since the Lapband surgery and I'm happy to be living this life free of health stress and issues. Also my confidence is at an all time high!

Hi Lapband Talk Family, on August 8, 2012 I had Lapland surgery weighing in at 245 (5'6 and size 18/20) and I met my Weightloss goal on Thursday August 1 weighting in at 144 lbs (size 4/6). My goal weight was 145. Please check out my transformation, and thanks to everyone that encouraged me along this journey. 9 more lbs to lose to live in my maintenance range o 135 - 145. Loving my Lapband, what an awesome tool! Update: I'm now at 132 lbs and I'm wearing a size 0/2. I'm loving my Lapband!

Awesome lost and I'm wishing you luck on your 100 LB goal before your 1 year anniversary!

You look amazing! Congrats!

I agree with you, after taking Biotin my hair has come back especially around the edges.

Smiles, I hit a plateau but I just kept following my meal and workout plan and the scale would eventually start moving again. It was during the plateau that I lost the most inches. You are doing great, just stay the course.

Awesome, congrats!

Dee you have been my inspiration for a long time so thank you very much! Nyshia, on average I have lost about 9 lbs a months but the numbers never drove me. I really needed and wanted to retrain my mind and body on how I relate to food. So I have focused on getting rid of the bad eating habits that cause me to get to 245 lbs and focus on learning new eating habits that will keep me at my goal weight. My relationship with food has completely change. Food is no longer in control, I am. Also I joined myfitnesspal with Dee and others and I track everything I eat! I'm luckyaka on my fitnesspal.
