these are the coral colored pants that my friend AJ sent me last year..i have wrote about them before..when she sent them to me' date=' i could not get them up over my thigh...100% true and i do not own a scale and so i used these pants as a way for me to gauge how i was doing....little by little, i got them on...and then i was trying hard to get them buttoned.....and then my stomach apron kept me from that....but i kept ON.. day in and day out eating my allotted amount lean Proteins, veggies, fruit drinking ALOT and exercising first just walking (all i could do) and then i would go farther and farther and then start low impact step aerobics first without the step and then on the step and now its a daily thing...to work out after work i do not eat my din din until ole girl works out and here i am today....wearing those coral colored pants..(they come with a white belt but i did not include it as i wore a black shirt)..the pants are a size 16 reg/missy (label said)...and the sweater is size large so, 16 months ago, i was in a size 5x skirt, size 30 pant and well over 336+ pounds and this is me today..in those coral colored pants so this post is to say, i did it... thanks for the support[/quote']

You look amazing in those coral pants.....seeing you reach this milestone is great since you have often talked about getting into those capri's during the course of your weight loss.

I hope you know what a true inspiration you are to me...and many others....there is no phony baloney here...just the plain and basic facts of banded life. And ever since I've been on this site, I've followed a few people and you have been one of them and you are making such a difference to me.

I've been banded only 7 1/2 weeks and I keep your words in the back of my head...out for a walk tonight with the dog....was it cold in NY...yup...so on went the winter coat and out I went. It felt good and no one could make me do it but me!!!!

I think the best thing has been making better food choice and NEVER feeling deprived. I eat everything I want and am learning to pay attention to that "stop sign" you talked about. I don't always listen or get it just yet but I'm figuring it all out....and the results are there....

I feel better....physically and mentally. My clothes are loose...even big...and the scale (which I am NOT a slave to) is down...... 46 pounds ALREADY.

So a great big thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing YOUR CORAL CAPRIS....and thanks to AJ for sending them to you!

      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...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
