Just wanted to say, No, Im not being banded. I started looking on here for my sister Nikkee31, before she had her surgery. So I linked her here, and she's been here ever since. For some reason I find myself browsing on here( I dont know why)! LOL But its all good though. You guys may remember me from keeping you all updated when she was away w/ her banding. However I enjoy reading new things, so I can help her stay up on what's new, etc. Jus wanted to say hi and I support all you guys on your journey of weight loss.

p.s. I noticed some people asked her about her avitar's and siggy. Hit me up mskaramel2002@yahoo.com for a request.

My sis has done an excellent job with keeping me informed with everything about the band and the success stories of some of you on here. Ash was a bit uneasy about me getting the band and I appreciate her for taking the time to educate herself about it and to see that there was really nothing to worry about.(Smile) She has been on this forum so much that I think she may even be able to perform the surgery. ROFL Just kidding about that, but she really has a lot of knowledge about it. She is my number #1 motivator and I just want to take this time to say THANK YOU ASHLEY for everything. I love u! P.S. She's quite the webdesigner too, if any of you would like a cool avatar or signature she is the BEST. (Smile)

Hi & welcome! It's so refreshing to see the family member of a fellow bandster on here! How cool is that!!!!

Let me just say how awesome I think you are for giving Nikkee the support that she needs right now.

I too am so grateful to my own mother, who not only was the one to suggest WLS to me, but to support me from the beginning to end. She has been to appointments with me, watched my son for me, and has been cheering me on the whole time. All this while she herself struggles with her own weight issues. (She doesn't have a high enough BMI too be banded here in the US, so sadly that isn't an option for her.)

Anyway.....thanks again for being such a wonderful sister. It means the world to us who are struggling to get our weight under control, and who are having to adjust to the new freedoms that we now feel with each melting pound.

YOU ROCK!!!!

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
