Pics 2 motivate others! We can do it :)

Hello guys, Its been a while since I've interacted on this forum...So busy with work n weightloss...but I know how frustrating weightloss can be! I've been banded for a year and 2 months and lost 58 pounds...at times I find myself saying "damn onlyyy 58 pounds?!" but then I gotta tell myself, "wow dats 58 pounds gone instead of plus 58 cuz I kno without this band my ass would of just been gaining n gaining lol...So anyways, be patient guys! N just keep working towards your goal! Dont focus on the amount of time that your losing, just look at the numbers and your LOOK! I weigh 230 but people tell me that I dont look like I weight that much..So I just take it as a compliment n keep loosing...I just wanted to share a few pics just to motivate others bc when I see pics, Im also motivated to do well.

Thank you so much for posting ur great pics and for ur encouraging words. This forum has saved my life. Everyone is so positive and motivated and that's exactly what I need to stay on track. I believe that I can accomplish anything with hard work and planning and that's what I'm going to do so I too can reach my goal weight and inspire others as you all have inspired me.
