I have a song to sing!

Banded just 2 months ago

I thought I had a long road to hoe

But healthy eating is the key

On the journey to a BRAND NEW ME!

I've lost 50 lbs!

I've lost 50 lbs!

I've lost 50 lbs!

I've lost 50 lbs!

I have been at this weight before

But I was going in the door

Now I'm going out, you see

On the journey to a BRAND NEW ME!

I've lost 50 lbs!

I've lost 50 lbs!

I've lost 50 lbs!

I've lost 50 lbs!

And if I ever get in a slump

To LapBandTalk, I certainly jump

But I did this for myself - yes, indeed

On the journey to a BRAND NEW ME!

I've lost 50 lbs!

I've lost 50 lbs!

I've lost 50 lbs!

I've lost 50 lbs!

OK - so 50 lbs lost and 1/2 a shoe size! I went to the mall today to buy 2 pairs of shoes to wear to work - cuz I've been hangin' out in flip flops and tennis shoes all summer - only to find that the reason my feet were hurting this morning is b/c they were slipping and sliding around in my shoes. Fortunately, I got one pair for 75% off!

I am so glad you posted this. My sandals were really loose, I kept thinking well I must not be retaining Water today (sometimes in the heat my feet swell) but it's occurring all the time. I put on my sneakers and they kept pulling my sock down off my foot as they rubbed. DUH!! makes sense that your feet would lose weight too! I know my fingers have as I am wearing rings I couldn't wear before.

Yeh, I kept reading about how people lost a shoe size or so, but I guess it's just information overload til it becomes personal to you. It was a lightbulb moment for me. I keep purging my clothes, now I have to add my shoes to the donation pile.
