Omg what a difference a year makes you look wonderful you are like a different person. How much weight have you lost? It,s my 1st year been banded on the 24th nov so i know a great change in myself i now have my life back after weighting in at over 350lb i am now down to over 126lb. Very well done

wow... you're amazing! i've just started training for my first 5k. i haven't ran since i was a kid and i can barely run 1/4 of a mile but i'm determined to finish that 5k in november no matter what!

you look great!! congratulations and Happy Bandiversary!!

Congratulations - you look great! You're a great inspiration for my goal next year - thanks for this post!

At my office for the last 4 years I've organized my MS150 bike team. (180 miles on a bike from Houston to Austin, over a 2-day period). THIS year I'm going to let someone else organize because I'm registering to ride. I'm determined to be in shape for it next April!

congratulations! You look slammin!

I wanted to be the first to tell you that you look hot, but someone beat me to it. Congratulations! I have had an amazing journey as well. While my knee arthritis might not go for a 5K, I might be able to walk you to death:laugh:! I added walking to my trips to Curves in January (on weekends as it was dark by the time I finished work). I walk in a park near where I live that has a 2 mile nature trail. When daylight savings arrived I began stopping each night on the way home, walking twice around. I am now losing daylight and can barely get around once, but will be instituting my backup plan--Water aerobics 2 days a week, Curves 3 days a week, the park on weekends. This past weekend I did 4 trips around both Saturday and Sunday, around 8 miles each day. Not bad for an old lady:thumbup:! I don't walk particularly fast, and I carry peanuts for the squirrels (a little passive weight lifting). They love to see me coming. I shake the bag and they come running. I even met a chipmunk (named him/her Chuckie) that comes to the same spot and I save the single peanuts for him/her. Chuckie stuffs one in each cheek and another in the mouth and runs off to stash them. About 2 minutes later, back again for more. I am a cheap date; they entertain me and make my walk more pleasant. I also meet lots of dogs (some who like peanuts too).

Keep up the good work.:wub:

Awesome!! You look amazing! Congrats on all of your success! :tt1:
