I feel bad that I havent been posting pics each month like I was, I have been so busy! for fun I thought I would compare a couple of face shots as I have never done this before, I must admit I feel like one of the ads you see in weight loss magazines because I dont even have make up on in the before oh well. All I have to say is "This is why I'm hot" :regular_smile:

I haven't posted an update in awhile. This is a before face pic and some after face pics that I took yesterday. I have been on a plateau for about 3 months now. I am not gaining, but I am not losing either. I was getting somewhat depressed, but the comparison of the before and after does help me get motivated again.

(the after pics are taken from my cell phone, thus the fuzzy quality).

Me minus 70lbs...

I have been admiring all of these pics for quite a while now.. Everyone looks fabulous, and in a lot of cases look so much younger! I did a sisde by side pic today for my Gram and Gramp, so I wanted to share. It's not much, as I am about 3.5 weeks out, but I am so excited to be able to post on here:) I can't wait to see the "After"! Congrats to every on there accomplishments, you are all an inspiration!!!:ohmy:

I thought I would post since seeing my friend Manatee representing the guys. I was banded on Dec 18th by the great Dr K. in Aurora CO. Started at 280 and now 217. I plan to have ribs and abs showing by July. Sorry for the underwear picture I didn't plan on ever posting them online for goodness sakes.

First picture is from around Christmas of 2005 - I weighed around 350 ish (navy blue geometric blouse).

Second picture is from March 2008 - I weigh about 220 (blue and pink t-shirt)

I turned 49 yesterday :redface:...

love my band
