It seems so unreal that I am down that much but I have clothes that haven't fit forever and I can wear them once again. It hasn't been easy and I haven't been perfect on eating everyday but it is slowly coming off. I am feeling so great. My mom told me to go to the grocery store and pick up 6 ten lb bags of potatoes and see how much I have gotten rid of. I can believe I was carrying that around. Wow I can say I am proud but not done. Next goal 100. Here I come 100. Haha

Great job! That is lot of weight.

Thats awesome keep up the good work!!!

Great job. I read these stories and hope one day I can say the same.

60 lbs of potatoes is alot of weight, hard to believe we carry that and more around everyday.

Good luck on your continued success.

Congratulations!!!!

WOOT WOOT...way to go....I am also down 70, tomorrow will be my 6 months.

Hubby down 70...today is his 6 months. Keep up the work........

Yeah!!!!

That's great, keep up the good work. I'm down 63lbs and trying to reach that 100lb goal also. Good luck!!!!

Excellent news. I've lost 65 pounds and I carried (more like dragged) in a 40 pound container of cat litter the other day...I couldn't believe that I carried that much weight and more on my body! Keep up the good work, it is worth it.

WOOT WOOT...way to go....I am also down 70, tomorrow will be my 6 months.

Hubby down 70...today is his 6 months. Keep up the work........

With 140 pounds down between the two you.............thats a person!! You have lost a person from your family.

Way to go!! I'm sure it has been nice to have someone on the same journey as you are at the same time!!

Great job to both of you!!

It does seem a little unreal...............clothes that fit one week, won't make it through the laundry the next week. I laughed and told my husband for the last 8 years everything I put in the dryer shrinks--------now I tell him its like the dryer is stretching everything out for me.

Awesome!!!

That's so awesome!! Keep up the good work

I just love reading these boards and hearing about everyones success. I applaud you all

I also love the fact that we all share so many of the same feelings and experiences (good and bad). These boards really are a great way to embrace the whole banded life experience. I am down 66 pounds as of today, with 45 more to go. I feel great, and I am back into clothes from my own closet that I haven't worn in years. Little things that have made me smile lately are streatching at my desk at work, seeing my reflection and noticing that I have collar bones again, who knew.....and my necklaces are getting longer, I can atually see my pendant when I look down now.....so strange.

I just went through a copule of difficult band weeks...I was a little tight through pms, then got stuck so was even tighter so I went to all liquids for about a week and half. During that time I dropped 6 more pounds and I've got to say it made it all worth while. I love love love how the band is helping me reach my goal, and for holding me accountable. My one year band-a-versary is July 22 and while I know I still won't be at my goal weight by then, I sure am happy about how this past year has changed me.

So Proud of You!!!

Congratulations
