Yippee! What a great success you have had this year -- you look amazing! Here's to 2014 and meeting our goals. You have really inspired me and I needed that today. Feeling some stress -- probably the holidays, etc., money, family, oh, you name it, we all have stress -- my mind is saying go get food and my band is saying no, sweetie, you don't need that. Phew.

Congratulations! Please pass on your excitement to inspire others. . . . . as that is the way our banding world works. . . . have a Happy Healthy New Year

Holy progress, Batman! You are looking fantastic.

No matter what happens don't stop pushing.slow progress is progress .Its still a struggle for me sometimes...afraid to eat something sometimes because I don't want to ever look like I did 60 pounds ago..but I thank god I made the choice to get my lapband because it has helped me..
