What a difference a year has made!! This is our family last year at Easter. I was always HIDING behind everyone when it was time for pictures. (Can you tell how I conveniently positioned myself?) It has been so nice to no longer have to worry about my double chin, if my behind is showing, constantly pulling at my shirt or just feeling so uncomfortable during picture time!! I can't tell you how much this band has changed my life!!

What a beautiful family you have...............yes, you look great. I am leaving formy surgery in just over an hour and doing some last minute perusing on here to remind me about why I am doing this surgery!!!So thanks for you thread!

Regards Amourette!

What a great photo of you and your family. I COMPLETELY understand the tugging shirt thing. But I have it now because I'm in a smaller size slacks, they've changed styles on me and these low-rider things are strange. I constantly feel like my underwear are showing. :nervous

Your family is beautiful....and You look great!

congratulations and keep up the good work with your weight loss.....

Its wonderful...I too love my band!!

What a beautiful family!!!!!!!

You look FABU!!!!!!!

You look great, I love the blue shirt and skirt set, very cute. It looks as if ur hubby has lost a bit of weight as well! Congrats!

You certainly dont have to worry about the double chin thing anymore! Your entire face looks thin! You look wonderful, and good looking family too!!!

you look great !!! very nice family you have !!

You do look wonderful Diane. What a great photo!

I wish like heck someone besides me in this family could take pictures; we have NO photos of my entire family together. I'm the only one who knows how to use the camera, anyway.

Wow, you look fabulous! And look how much your children have grown and changed in the past year two. You have a beautiful family.

Diane, I am so happy for you. You look wonderful!!

Were you wearing heels in this year's pic? You look taller by your hubby, who by the way is very handsome! And look how much your children have grown in one year! *sighs* I hate time. It takes away so much, and yet everyday I want it to hurry up and pass so I can be at goal.

Anyway, you look wonderful my friend. I'm truly happy for you and your family!

Hey Photonut! Yes, I was wearing heals in the recent picture. HA!! Very funny you noticed. I think I have a full body picture of me with the heels on - I'll see if I can pull it up.

I agree about time moving so fast. I feel like I just had that little baby girl in my stomach & there she is as big as can be. *sigh* However, time is good. It took TIME for me to lose this weight & be a better Mom & I wouldn't change a thing.

Okay, found the picture - here is it!!! I'm definately wearing heels. :confused:

Great to see your success in the past year!

Wow, It's amazing how quickly kids grow. They're growing while Mom is shrinking. :confused:

Happy Band Journeys To All...

Diane ~ You have a beautiful family and you are so blessed!! Not to mention you look beautiful yourself!! :clap2: We always take a family pic at Easter, but this year we didn't have anyone to take one of us together. Every year I feel like a giant Easter egg in my pastel colors. I can't wait till next year to show the thinner me and I hope I have such a wonderful, happy smile as you!!! Thanks for the inspiration!!!

Here's me trying to hide....oh well....I tried. :phanvan

Wow 3loves! You did a great job of hiding! *laughs* How on earth did you fold yourself up that much? I'd have fallen over! *laughs*

By the way, you have adorable boys and don't hide you silly. You look so pretty! Well.. what I can see of you anyway! :confused:
