I was just banded on 3-21-13. I lost 18lbs on my own from Jan- March and have lost 12 lbs since surgery. No weight loss for 2 weeks but my body is changing! Dont mind the funny face on last pic!

Wow !!!! Your look terrific

Wow you are noticeably shrinking!! You're off to a great start! Congratulations!!

Wow awesome job. Amazing how the weight loss has improved your posture.

Looking good! Thanks for sharing.

GREAT idea to do the interim pictures! The changes are clear, and it's great for motivation. You're definitely shrinking

Thanks everyone! I cant wait to see more pics posted! I love looking at everyones pics!

It is so bizarre! When I had lost just the 18, my clothes still fit. With this 12...my body has changed shape so fast and clothes no longer fit! Went from 22 to allllllmost an 18! Can get em on and ALMOST buttoned and zipped!

Wow nice pics. How is your recovery?

Recovery is going great! Other than days 2 and 3 after surgery (nausea and dry heaving for 36 hours). ...Ive been great!

Wow you are doing great! I wish I would have taken pics like you are doing. I was also banded 3/21/13. I'm down around 10 pounds but I'm struggling to pay attention to my true hunger vs my need to munch. Today is much better that Mon/Tues/Wed. I'm not hungry today and feel a renewed determination to succeed even in this pre-filled phase.

Keep in touch! You inspire me to keep it going strong since we were banded the same day!

Continued success!!!!

You and I are in the same boat! I was banded 3/20 and have gone from a 22 to a tight tight 18! You are doing great! What an excellent idea to take pictures more frequently and put them side by side! Are you taking measurements too?

I have only kept track of waist measuremens at this point. :-(

Keep in touch "bandmates"!!!
