I about messed my britches a little while ago when I fit in my Mom's size 12 pants! I was able to snap and zip!!!! OMG, I am the happiest thing on this earth right now. I told my mom the other night that I wanted to be in a 12 by this time and low and behold what happened??? My Mom said "Angie you look smaller than me lets try on these pants." I tried them on and they fit. I jumped like tigger all throughout the house I was sooo happy!!!!! This lapband has done wonders for my spirit and my happiness. I was so unhappy and so unhealthy the way that I was. Life is looking up girls!! WOOT!

That is funny that you say you want to raid her closet. I am out of town visiting here in the great state of VA. And I tried on her jeans and then wanted to check everything else she had on. You should have seen her eyes like OMG she is going to start stealing my clothes. It was funny. I wish I could take the size 12's with me so I can prove it to my NC girls! :girl_hug:

Angie

Girl that is AWSOME....I am so happy for you. I thought a felt a whirlwind all the way down here in the Carolina's. hehe....You don't have to prove nothing to us...you can tell it when we see you. I can't wait to just get in a 14/16...I will get there one day.

Melissa she is beautiful...Thanks for sharing. I love the hair!

Congratulations Angie! I can't wait to get into a size 12 jeans!

Hey Karen!!!! You will make it, just wait and see. You are well on your way. I am happy to see you have been on here and have posted. I hope you are feeling better!!!

Congratulations again Angie!

I don't remember reading this thread .... much less responding to it! ROFLMAO! Can I blame the good hospital drugs?

Yeah apparently those drugs are pretty good and they make you forget things and you look back and say I said that or I did that? lol

NSV for me Saturday! My Mom and I went to Kohl's to look at clothes for her. She was wanting some capri pants. I told her I bought some on sale there in size 14 petite. She said that is the same size she wears. I took her over to the petite department and showed her the capris. She took two pair in the dressing room to try on. She came out and said they are too small I need the non-petite. """I am officially smaller then my mom!""" WooHoo!

That is awesome Maryb! I cant wait to say I am smaller than my mom. Her size 12's I got into were stretchy so who knows it could be a 14 for me too. I will have to go shopping and try on some clothes. I need to check out Khol's and see what they have. I love capri's. They are very comfortable. Keep on truckin Maryb and before you know it you will be in a size 12!!!

Bondgirl, Thank you! You have lost half way to goal!

You are doing great! My mom has never really been over-weight. She does fluctuated up and down 20 pounds. But never obese. So this is a real accomplishment for me to be smaller then her.

Thanks Maryb. I appreciate it. I hit the half way mark in December and havent lost anything since. I am not following the guidelines of being a bnadster and need to get back on track. With losing my grandmother in November and now my husband has left it has taken a toll on me emotionally and I have been doing that emotional eating. I need to get out of that period and start losing. I do need a fill too because I just feel like I can eat anything.

Angie

Go get you a fill and start losing weight again! There is no better pick me up then getting thin and gorgeous!

Thank you Mary B. I so appreciate that. I do feel so much better and I am so much happier with the way I am looking. I feel gorgeous but I want it to keep going. I want to have the rest of this weight off of my by December. So we shall see how it goes. I will call Dr. B tomorrow to get it scheduled. Thanks!!
