100lb....16weeks...Not Too Shabby!!

Hello to All,

I just wanted to take a moment and share my milestone. Today is exactly 16 weeks since I had my surgery and I am down 100.8lbs. It hasn't been easy...nor hard...just a concentrated focus of making the right choices and doing what I'm supposed to do. I'm close to my goal on the scale...so I'm starting the transition to a more focused effort on toning up.

This has been an amazing ride...and I just want to say to anyone who is considering Lap Band...you can have success despite what others might say. RNY is not the only WLS game in town. If you understand that it takes a little commitment and effort...you can be successful with Lap Band.

I'm going to try and attach a picture...hopefully you'll be able to see my progress. I'm wearing the belt I wore when I had surgery...and I'm holding it at the hole I used to use. :)

I wish everyone well. Take care and have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Bud in Indy
