Drew your before and after pictures are crazy! Doesn't even look like the same person. I have my consultation on March 1st. Looking forward to living the banded life!

I am about the same build as you were in your before picture. I'm 5'11 365 currently. My ultimate goal is 225ish. Hope to get there one day!

Thanks for sharing your story!

I was banded just about 4 months ago on 11/6/12. I have lost 66lbs so far :D I did this before and after picture a few weeks ago when I hit the 60lbs lost mark. The before picture was from Spetember 2011, and was not at my heaviest weight. I am looking forward to more progress!

Looking good Joey! Keep it up!

You look good Joey! You look young, I assume your goal is to reach a certain weight to feel better and look more attractive. You are nearing that goal! Best wishes for a successful future! Karen

Double post.

Thank you everyone for your positive responses! I am not as your as the picture makes me look...I am 26. My wife and I both bad the surgery to become healthier, when our daughter was born in December 2011, it was a wake up call that we both needed to make changes to ensure we're always around for her :1)

Sorry, you look very young! I thought maybe you were looking to change your look for college, or a new career! Good luck to your wife and you, and congrats on your daughter!
