Before & a Year + Later

I started my LapBand journey June 5, 2013. Almost 15 months later & I've lost 78lbs. It's a success, but I had hoped that I would have lost more by now. I recently started a workout routine & I hope to lose another 32lbs by the end of the year. My starting weight was 408lbs, I'm currently at 332lbs. My before and during pictures are attached. Any tips or tidbits to accelerate my weight loss would be appreciated :)

You're doing great!!!! We're on a very similar timeline and are down around the same amount. Just keep doing what you're doing and don't make yourself nuts. :)

That is absolutely in the 1-2lbs/wk range - and it def shows - keep it up!

That's Great! I hope to be on the losing end soon :)

Congratulations! You look YOUNGER

And You will be!

Great job! I'm expecting a slow weight loss, but totally expect a certain amount of frustration that I won't be "supermodel thin" by next summer...lol :lol: (I wasn't that thin even at birth...) But, I hope to show permanent improvement just as you have! Keep up the good work and remember attitude is more than half the battle...if you think you can, then you will. Good luck!

Your looking Marvelous darling! Keep up the good work! I'm losing it slowly but surely and I'm feeling great about it!! I hope you are too :)

Doing great! Congrats! You look 10 years younger too!

Congratulations on your great progress, so far. This band thing is really working for you. :)

Congratulations -- you are doing beautifully! You are so inspiring to those of us still pre-band -- I can't wait!
