Just got back from a dr appointment, after having been on holidays. Was shocked to see that even after a largish unfill before going overseas and eating throughout the holidays, I managed to lose 2kgs. Okay, so I know its not much lol, but its better than gaining, which is what I generally do during the holidays.

My doctor pulled up my lil graph and showed me that I've now lost 75% of my excess body fat, in less than a year. He was very happy with that, as am I. He said that while my bmi is 27, I'm pretty much within the "healthy" range. I'm a bit vain though LOL and want to keep going til I'm about midway into the healthy range *shrugs*.

This band has been one of my best decisions ever. I've got more energy now that I ever remember having and my self confidence just keeps getting better and better!

Okay, so enough about me lol... thanks for reading :eek:

What is your secret? 75% nice job!

Wow...that's amazing in just one year! You should be SO proud of yourself!!!

I've been afraid to look at my current BMI. I think I'll check it now. That's amazing, you must feel great! You look great, that's for sure.

Hey, I'm just regular obese! I used to be morbidly obese. I'm not even severely obese any more, so that's cool! My BMI is 34.3. Will I ever be overweight?

:wow2: :eek:

Hi, there! I am just amazed at how well you have worked your band! I've been looking at your picures, and you are looking good, girl! Way to go! Cindy

Incredible. I bet that though you'd like to lose a bit more, all the rewards are coming thick and fast anyway now.

Great job Jess! I think you're a great example of how exercising (combined with our trusty bands of course) can really help us achieve our goals. :eek:

Thanks everyone! I'm walking on cloud nine today LOL. I was sure I would have gained during the holidays.

Now if I can convince myself to get back to the gym after a month's hiatus, perhaps I can drop this last 8-13kgs a bit quicker hehe.

congrats jess

you are doing a fantastic job:clap2:

Jess, I saw your pics and was amazed. The before and after is so inspiring. Please share with us some of your program (what do you eat? how often? do u exercise?).

I'm glad you went on holiday (i'm American but have been overseas long enough to make the switch from vacation to holiday without being annoyed) and managed to lose weight. Just maintaining would have been a wonder, but you lost! Bravo! Where'd you go? What kind of food did they have?

Jess! You Sexy Thang, You!!

Work that Band!! I love to see Band Success Stories - and I would have to say that yours is one of them!!

Keep up the great work and you'll be a supermodel in no time.

Hugs!

:]

congrats jess...you look amazing!!

Congrats! You have done great with your band!:biggrin1:

Way to go! You do look just awesome! I think you look perfect with all the right curves...

You are doing a great job girl!
