1st picture 2/14/08 240 pounds 2nd picture 10/2006 308 pounds 7/8/2008 232 pounds I need to take a more current full length picture but i thought I would see if i could get these to post this time. I am very happy that i had my surgery a year ago. I am struggling at this time getting a right fill amount, but I know I will and it will all work again. I have went from a size 30 jeans ... down to a size 18/20. That feels AMAZING!!!!!!

It really amazes me on how the band/fills effects everyone differently. I felt some restriction with just my band. Then my doc gave me .5CC in a 10CC band -- and i had a little more restriction. Last week, i got another .5cc for a total of 1cc, and I can hardly eat anything. I am eating small amounts, very very slowly. But I couldn't imagine having another fill anytime soon. Not that I am complaining -------------- don't get me wrong. It just amazes me. I remember thinking during my 1st fill "What is .5cc going to do for me when there are some getting 5cc at a time?" -- But everyone is just so different. Lilly73 -- PB is productive burp and NSV is Non scale victory. I had one of those the other night. I went to Cheddars with my friends and they were already sitting in a booth. I normally try to do a table -- but I was so happy to fit comfortably in the booth -- with room to spare. I can't wait for November -- i am flying to Vegas. I am sure this time, i will just be like everyone else -- i will walk onto the plane, go to my seat, and buckle up. WITHOUT asking for a seatbelt extension. WHOOHOOO -- i haven't done that for years. And I can't wait to sit in the seats at whatever show i go to see and not have to squeeze in and out of them. :clap2::clap2:
