To be fair let me say that I lost 11 pounds pre-band and I include them in my totals. These pictures were taken on surgery day, and the new ones were taken earlier today, so there's a 50.5 pound difference between them. 50 pounds in the last 6 months- THAT is a loss I am happy with! That's 1.94 pounds a week since being banded. I like numbers. ANYWAY pics.

You look great even wearing the "to be avoided at all cost" horizantal stripes!!!! Congratulations!!!!

Congrats on the weight loss AND that you aren't wearing Lane Giant jeans in the last picture (Those at least look like the back pockets of my Lane Giant jeans)

LOL- they're still Lane Bryant, but 20 instead of 24- I bought them at Goodwill for $3

My exercise regimen? I haven't quite settled on one yet! I've been doing a little bit of everything but I haven't hit on anything I love.

Wow - great results!

LMAO --thanks for the laugh!
