Just wanted to share. Today is my one year bandiversary. Im down a total of 60lbs with the band and went form a sz 24 to a sz 14. I wish it was more but Im happy with my progress.

Today is my 1 year bandiversary. I couldn't be happier with my decision to have the lapband! I have lost 86 lbs so far...Here are some pics...

In the side pics, the first pic I had probably already lost 45ish pounds. But the first shot and the head shot are heaviest to current.

Here are two pictures showing what i looked like at the starting of my Lap Band Journey. The first is from Sept. 2008, when i started going to my Doctor. I was at 469 lbs. I had surgery in December of 2008 and I was 410 lbs at that point. The 2nd picture is from today (June 24th, 2009) at 325 lbs. :bored:

I am so inspired by all of your pictures! Everyone looks amazing. Today is 3 months and 5 days out. I feel wonderful and people are finally starting to notice. I went from a 32 to a 20! This is the best thing I have ever done for myself I only wish I had the guts to do it 10 years ago! I am 33 years old...I can't even imagine what my life would have been like if I had this done earlier. Most likely even more of a blast just a bit less embarrassing and in better clothes.

Ya'll are all my sheroes/heroes. As soon as I get into one of my "pitty parties" and "can't-do conventions", i come to this thread. I still have a ways to go, but i can't believe how far I have come.

The first pic is me at about 322lb and the second pic is me at about 230lbs. Again, I still have quite a ways to go, but I am slowly geting there.

Thanks again, everyone.

Before: 1st pic is me, miserable in Hawaii at 272 lbs 2nd pic, same place, same time, same baggage

3rd pic - worst of all!

After: face after 65 pounds lost/9 months out (06/09)

full length after 50 pounds (05/09)

I hit my 200lb loss mark today so i thought i would share some photos. I have decided to lower my goal. Not sure to what yet though.

Before and After face pic. The before, a few months before surgery in the 290s and after at 178ish or 180ish, lol (pic taken in June). :lol:Had surgery on October 2008.

i haaaate this before picture (which is why i cut off my head!) but it shows the most drastic comparison i think.

before: 251 lbs, october 2008

current: 183 lbs

ok, I'm 6 months out...... here's my progress pics

First pic was in mid December a week before my surgery

Second pic is from today

The pictures of you all are amazing! This morning I did a side-by-side of my starting pic and current pic. It's still a work in progress but even I can see a change

Still a work in progress. 19 till initial goal then I will see if I want to keep going.

Today is my one year bandiversary, so I wanted to post some pics. My weight loss isn't nearly as impressive as many of you, but I'm still pretty pleased.

It´s been awhile since posting, so here it goes...

Well here's my first post in this thread with some pictures... here's a before and after. I'm only down 95lbs, with about 80lbs to go.
