Ok, so I'm only three weeks out, but here is a before and after picture....

The picture on the left was taken on 1/14/07, 10 days before my surgery and one day before my pre-op diet began. The picture on the right was taken on 4/16/07, almost exactly 3 months later. I've only lost 28 lbs, but I think you can still see a difference. :clap2:

Taken in 2002

Taken in 2005

I have gained some back since 2005.

You've all been more than generous, posting your photos and giving me so much courage and ambition to do this.

My first set of photos are from 2 days before surgery. The second set is two months later; about 28 pounds. I've not yet had a fill due to a 90 day waiting period, which is scheduled for May 8 - 1st fill! So right now I'm in bandster hell; hungry as anything - no restriction. I'm trying to do my best…but I can feel old habits lingering closely. This is NOT easy to do.

<p>Here are my photos for my year (tomorrow.) I didn't figure I'd be changing much between tonight and tomorrow so here we go!</p> <p> </p> <p></p> <p><p></p>

Here ya go.. Might want to delete your previous post as it stretches out the posting box..

Here is Lianna. Beautiful!!

Dancing Queen, resized. Looking great!!

Here's Wonderwoman. Beautiful!

I was going to wait until I made it to 100 pounds lost to post pics, but close enough! LOL!!

The first one was one week after surgery. I was at 309 at the time, down ten pounds post surgery.

The others are from the last two weekends, down 90 pounds. I was at 229 at the time. (At least I'm not afraid of cameras anymore! )

I have avoided posting pics as I still hate the camera but decided at about 100 lbs. lost, it was time. So here goes...

One year banded 4/11/07 Progression photos.

I am currently undergoing intensive weight training and expect to be close to goal weight/ fat% by July, 2007. I tried to reduce the size of these pictures by lowering the pixeling however you may see the pixel (squares).

My husband and I - Progression pictures. The before shot was taken on 4/07/06 and the After shot was taken 4/6/07. My husband is not banded but has lost the weight by working out with me at Gold's. Way to go DH!

Here are my 1 month photos. 47 lbs
