So, I went out to a club last weekend, and couldn't figure out why the bouncer thought I had a fake I.D. --

Then, I decided to take a closer look at it. Although I can't see the changes like everyone else does...

I think I am starting to see his point. Time for a new ID

Scroll across to see the "current" new pic of me side by side with the ID pic.

Funny -- check out the weight I listed on the ID back then! ha yeah right!

Was just a little wake up call I has last week :-)

It has been almost 3 years since my surgery and I just celebrated my 65th birthday...the Lapband is the best present you could ever ask for and the best thing that I have ever done for myself!

I have been without a fill for 9 months now, and trying to maintain.....

Here are my (almost) two months photos... The first is the day of surgery...the second was last night...

I am really starting to see it elsewhere...but still not enough to post pics... I hate my twin tummy...it's barely any different.

But my face looks GREAT!!!

Thanks for looking!

The brown top was the night before surgery. Six months ago. The purple top was yesterday.

The yellow top was Septermber 9th, 2006, nearly a year ago to the day.

And the cutie pies are me and my daughter

Hope this works..I am definately "picture uploading challenged" :o

The first picture is me at my heaviest, which was 290 lbs.

The second and third pictures are me minus 100 lbs.

here are my pictures..

Hope this works..

l97923786.jpg 5-31-2006 276 pounds

l773114407.jpg 9-8-2007 230 pounds

The one in the white shirt is before surgery. The one in the blue shirt is about three weeks ago. I am still a little ways from my goal weight, but thought I would post some pics anyway.

I hate looking at this b4 (2005)pic along with all the other b4 pics, but I guess we have to keep them around to see the difference.
