I like to think I can consider myself a success story, although I still have another 12 lbs until I reach my "Holy Crap!" dream goal of 150 lbs. It's been a journey filled with ups and downs, but I would do it again in a heartbeat. not only have I gotten a new lease on life, through my band and my blog I have met some absolutley wonderful ladies who have become dear friends. I wish everyone much success. If you would like to see my before and after photos, you can find them on my blog "Dreams of Skinny High Heels" (listed below)

Thanks for the correction, I was Yipe! How did this person loose 150 lbs sinc eFeb 2011. Makes better since now, Stephanie. Congrats on your weight loss! Karen

Wow!!! You are such an inspiration.

great job - you look fabulous! Question - I think on your last pic you mention 'no makeup and hung over' - can you tell me more about alcohol after banding? (Please everyone no lectures about wrongs of alcohol, calories, lowering inhibitions - exchanging one addiction for another etc.) - truth is alcohol is the only liquid with calories that I ever drink - and I know if I'm being realistic I will eventually want my weekend drink(s) here and there after banding. You mention sorority and drinking - are about my age and build (pre-op) - so we have some things in common and I just wanted to know how alcohol and the band have mixed for you. Thanks!
