Can I share my 1 month photo of my face??? There's not too much different anywhere else, so my face will have to suffice...

The first pic is the day of my surgery and the second is today...exactly 4 weeks since my surgery. I'm down 32 pounds and am feeling great...so much more energy and I am starting to feel prettier.

Excuse my hair and the plant growing out of the second one....it was 1am and I look pretty bad by 1am...

Thanks for looking!!!

My gross self back a few days prior to surgery and then Me a year later celebrating with my friends on a pontoon on a beautiful lake. What a difference a year made. A year ago I would have taken that whole seat I think!

me in pink at 255 on august 10th 2006

HOLYCRAP025.jpg

me at 190, august 2007 (surgery day was sept 5th, 06)

hey all, i got that "youve been gone too long email" from lapbandtalk. and although im not to my final weight right now, i thought id share that i went from 255 above, to 190. I only have one fill, but the first 30lbs of weight loss really took the pressure off of my ankles and allowed me to move again (I have rheumatoid arthritis).. i went from a size 20 to a size 14, and i can shop and etc for a long time.

i am thinking about getting a third fill (have a 4cc filled to 2.0 or 2.5 - yes doc was very aggressive) so that i can have assistance to the last resistant 25 lbs. I only feel resistance when im very dehydrated, but some times i can still eat 3 pieces of pizza, and anything i want. which is bad. i would say that happens most times.

I'm finally getting down to a weight loss that people are noticing...it feels so good. The first pictures is after my first appointment with a 12 pound loss already. I forgot to take pictures before the surgery. Then the next picture is yesterday after about 47 total! I still have about 40 to go!

      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
