You can believe it did not happen over night. It took three years and I never complained about my weight stalling for long periods. I just stuck it out and with a lot of work on my eating part it does work.

I'm learning that. I'm 6 months in but have not lost a pound since September. I'm going to increase my workouts. I'm sure it will start to come off again. I'm down 4 pants sizes and feel great so I'm not complaining at all. I didn't gain this weight in 6 months and I know it will take a lot longer than 6 months to get it off. I feel better than I have in years and I am enjoying buying clothes from the regular rack and not the plus sized one!! I just had my 4th fill and I'm really feeling a difference, I feel like I'm about the turn the corner.

great goodness Cheryl you have lost a person.. You did good ... I think it does take time to realize that it is possible to get to a healthy weight.. I am now 15 lbs or so from my goal and I am not stressing about it.. I will get there I just have to remind myself that it won't happen overnight... thank you for posting your pictures..

Wow! Just WOW! You look amazing! Thanks for sharing! Seeing your before and after pics is both encouraging and motivating to me! You are da bomb girl!!!

i say wow too! you look great cheryl.

You look good but the blouse looks a bit big on you , thanks I am glad you said it took three years as I really would love to be at goal I was thinking this last 50 to 40 lbs is hard to lose but I am still working with the band as it will work with me , so until the time comes I have still lost a good amount since Sept of 2012 so I will keep on doing what I am doing for me.

Cheryl, you look fabulous! You are living proof!Karen..aka.kll724
