Just a couple of photos of my progress so far. I'd like to drop another 30 lbs.

I am very nervous about doing this and may take the pics down at some point. But for now... me before and where I am now. Still have about 25-30lbs to go (at least!). Also, my sister is not the best photographer and you will notice I have no feet.

Ok, this is my first post here so please be kind!

First picture is at my highest of 385 taken July 07. The second was taken last night at 295. I have gone from wearing a 32-34 and am now fitting into 24 :scared2:

Starting weight was 235 lbs. The first photo was taken the morning of my surgery. Now down to 200 lbs. 5 months later.

The first one is of me at either 285 or 320 not sure which. The second one is of me at 220. I am now down another 7 lbs and one size. I am going in for plastic surgery, TT and thigh lift on 4/21. Almost to goal.

Ok here we go...some updates for ya. 110pnds lighter!

I haven't posted in this thread yet. I have lost 90lbs. as of today and I am shouting it from the roof tops. I have lost this weight in just under 5 months. I love my Band!

The 2st two pictures are of me at my highest weight of 354lbs. the 3rd is when I hit 60lbs. lost and the last two are of me this morning at 90lbs. down.

I hope that these pictures can bring inspiration to someone that may be struggling with weightloss and looking into the LapBand. Do it! It's the best thing I have done for myself in a long time and if I can do it you can to.

I got this picture yesterday from my g'ma, and I couldn't believe it!! I forget how big I was, I didn't keep many pics of myself, so when other people show them to me I'm amazed. And I find it weird, even my teeth look different to me!!

(2-3 years pre-op)

Now..

This is a little scary. First pic was taken the end of Sept. I think I weighed about 287 lbs. then. Second pic was taken two days ago. 5 months after surgery. I now weigh 217.
