This was one of the only recent body shots I can find. This is me on vacation in Canada in September. If you haven't figured it out, I'm the big one with the Florida shirt on lol.

Hello All,

I was banded on December 4th. The top picture was taken on Thanksgiving, I had already lost 20 lbs. from my heaviest weight of 338. That is my dad and my brother with me.

The second picture was taken in May of 2006. This is my oldest son Brett.

The bottom picture was taken at my cousin's wedding in February 2006.

I can't wait to be able to post some after pictures!

Good luck to everyone!

<p>

and now I have to learn how to make pictures SMALLER
</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p>Photobucket is a great site for this and it is free.</p> <p> </p> <p>After you create an account and upload your photos you'll choose the EDIT button atop your photos thumbnail. There will be several choices for you to copy the URL and then you can paste it into your post or signature.</p> <p>There are better intructions on the site.</p> <p>Hope this helps.</p> <p>susan<img src="http://www.LapBandTalk.com/images/smilies/happy.gif" border="0" alt="" title="" smilieid="60" class="inlineimg" /></p>

I walk alot, clean house, do what ever I can to be active. I just was banded Dec 14th so I cannot use my elliptical trainer yet. I am looking forward to that.... I have just been eating under 800 calories every day.

Two Weeks Post-Op

I don't have any "true" before pictures. I weighed about 26 pounds more at my heaviest in late September. As of this morning, I'm down 14.5 pounds from my surgery weight.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
