Started this journey in late December of 2011. Since then I've lost over 80lbs. This has been a life changing experience. I'm grateful for everything and I look forward to more success. Thanks to those that have supported me through this. The support is priceless. I have about 60 more pounds to go until I reach my first goal. Excited for what's to come.

Just wanted to share my photo with my LBT family. Best wishes to everyone :)

I have been banded for more than a year now. I have lost 25kg but depression got me months ago which got me eating sweets and stuff. I am back to -15 from my original which makes me a gainer yet again. I am now finding it hard to lose weight again. I do not know what to do anymore.

How did u do it? I mean, i am inspired by u but i can't seem to translate it into action...

I had some health issues that led to having my band emptied out a year or so after I started and all I can tell you is this- start again, again and again because each time you don't let the scale run your life, you take a little more control...DON'T ever give up on regaining control of your eating. Start small, but START! You are worth it! Your band is still there, you just have to learn to listen to it again.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
