Recommended Posts

Hello all! I have attached my before pic from Nov 2007 and and after picture from Nov 2008. I need to get another pic since I have lost 20 more pounds since that picture.

After - 140lbs

This is 1y 2m after being banded & 1m after my tummy-tuck. I really don't know what I did to lose so fast or else I would tell everyone! I feel like I just eat dramatically less. But I still eat the same sort of food as I did before. Minus all fast food. But yeah, I thought I'd share.

I should really have had the picture taken earlier in the day before the make-up goes to pieces!

At any rate, here is me before (279 lbs) and down 70 today - assuming the picture works.

EVERYONE YOU LOOK AMAZING! What a difference the band makes!

Okay I guess its my turn to take the B&A plunge! Here is where I've been and where I am so far.

I'm pretty happy with how the weight is coming off. Still working at getting to goal though. What does a girl have to do to lose this gut!

I hope this helps anybody who is on the fence. Join the band!

BTW: I had to include a pic of me walking in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade! It was AWESOME!:mad2:

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
