NSV today! I fit into an XL top and bottom! I can't remember the last time I could. I am so happy!!

Awww, congrats!!!

That's awsome! It feels so good to fit into smaller sizes. Keep up the great work!

Great news, Jess! Isn't it great when you fit into smaller clothes?!!!:woot:

It feels so good. This surgery has changed my life. Weather it be the lap band itself or the fact that I decided to change my life and actually am doing it. For the first time in a long time, probably since 6th grade which was like 17 years ago, I feel good about myself. My depression which I have had since about then is gone. I am going to the gym and doing kickboxing and actually enjoying it. Even though I feel my weightloss is a little slow, my body is changing and I feel good. I have to say I was so miserable before surgery I thought about ending things a few times a month, but since surgery I have not had one negative thought. Sorry for my sob story, but I felt I needed to share. Everyone keep up the great work!

Awww, congrats!!!

Wow! I see that you got your band like only four days before me and your amount of lbs. lost is twice as much as mine. What are some of your secrets?

Congratulations!!!!!

Soooooo happy for you!!!!!!!!

Keep up the good work!

That's wonderful!! Congratulations. We need to appreciate these victories as they happen

YAY!!! Congrats!!

Congratulations! It is exciting to fit into smaller sizes. I bought a small sized sweater and some size 6 jeans at a yard sale the other day, so I have something to push for, for next Winter. I'm in size 12-16 jeans now. I can still wear at least one of my size 16's.

Wonderful!!!!!!!!! Be proud of your accomplishment!

yay!! I bought some XL shirts last week, felt so good!

SO AWESOME!!!! Congrats!!!!! Feels so GREAT to get into smaller clothes.

Yesterday I tried on a shirt getting ready for work and realized it was WAY too big for me. I haven't worn it in awhile...thinking it was going to be too small!! Thank God I had some XL tops already that I keep from a few years ago. I'm starting to build a pile of clothes in the spare bedroom to pack up for the Good Will. I'll need to go shopping soon.

Wow! I see that you got your band like only four days before me and your amount of lbs. lost is twice as much as mine. What are some of your secrets?

Low carb, high Protein diet along with lots of exercise Measured/counted my food religiously. Nothing more!

I just went to the Salvation Army tonight and was able to fit into size 12 pants. That has not happened since 1990. Hot damn!!
