You have all been such an inspiration to me. Congratulations to all of you on your weight loss! You all truly look wonderful. I look forward to coming on the Before/After pix. So after four months and 76lbs down I have decided to post. This is still so hard just because I have so much more to loose. I am so thankful for the results though that I hope to give others hope that we can all fight the fight of morbid obesity and obesity alike. God Bless everyone on their journey...We can do this!

<HR style="COLOR: #e9e9e9" SIZE=1>Time for an update.

I hope the pics work this time!

First pics of me: Before and After LapBanding.

The first is in 2005 and the second pic is Early 2006. Same outfit, different look!

OK, next is late 2006 after a Tummy Tuck but I'm still losing weight.

Finally, here I am a few months ago - after goal weight. (I'll just put a link here. I'm fresh out of the shower in this picture, in my undies. Don't want to offend anyone!)

Even though this is an ongoing journey, Im proud of where I am. There are those who make snide comments ("Well you lost so much weight, you probably have so much hanging skin." or even "Oh, I guess you think you look so good now. Don't get a big head.")

No, I don't have a big head, but I haven't been this size in years. Hooray for the LapBand! clap2.gif

      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
