You look wonderful! What an inspiriation. We are almost the same age and you appear to be short, like me (5'1"), we actually bear some physical similarity - so your "after" photos are especially inspiring for me. Great job!

Hey everyone, sorry for not responding to your notes - I didn't even discover this page until today! So by now they're a little out of date, sorry! Oh Tammy about my starting weight, well I weighed 255 but I lost 10 pounds on my own while I was researching the surgery, so I was 245 when I saw the doctor. I am only 5'1" so my BMI was like 43... so, no problem where that was concerned, at least as far as qualifying for surgery goes, lol. Timandi, I was banded at NWWLS.
