60 lbs lighter - Lapband success

[ld0008 0]

this is my story - I've always had a weight problem. I hated who I was and how I felt. My before picture was taken Christmas eve last year. I had nothing to wear and was 241 lbs. We went to my brother in laws house and of course there were many pictures taken. My husband and son were a great support and made me feel as comfortable and I could be despite my obesity problem. I could not take it anymore. I was tired all the time and my knees were starting to bother me. I decided to have the lapband. I was banded on March 3 and have lost 60 lbs since. I feel so much better. The weight has been coming off at a much slower pace but i know I will get to my goal. I love my lapband, it's a great tool. without the lapband I was able to lose up to 20 lbs here and there but never able to keep it off for more than 1 month. Now I've lost 60 lbs, which is the most I've ever lost and I know it will stay off. :shades_smile:

Good luck to all of you fellow lapbanders.
