  1. Congrats! You are truly inspirational!
  2. Congrats and this is an awesome testimony!
  3. 41 lbs is a lot of weight and you can see the difference. Keep up the good work!
  4. 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!
  5. 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!
  6. Thanks All! Even with the weight loss it's a ton of hard work to maintain!
  7. As long as you are doing everything right, the scale will start moving.
  8. You look amazing! Way to go on losing 103 lbs!
  9. I can see the difference and you look amazing!
  10. I met my goal weight of 145 in August 2013, almost 1 year after surgery. Today, I'm happy to report a healthy weight of 132 lbs. I'm living life at 13 lbs below goal. I truly love my Lapband, and I'm super thankful to be 113 lbs lighter in a size 2. This is my before and after picture, the one on the left is pre surgery at 245 lbs and the one on the right is at goal of 145lbs. This pic is me at 132 lbs.
  11. Congrats and you look amazing!

  15. 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!
  16. Awesome lost and I'm wishing you luck on your 100 LB goal before your 1 year anniversary!
  17. I agree with you, after taking Biotin my hair has come back especially around the edges.
  18. 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.
