Well, I got banded in June of this year. I bought some jeans and they didnt exactly button when I got them but i figured i could fit them by Christmas. Well, I tried them on and they fit! Only to realize I need a "short" and not a regular. But that im not too concerned about. I got them from the Jrs. Dept. which im even more happy about. (being that im only 21) I mean they are a size 19, but starting from a 24, im so glad. 40 lbs. lost at the 6 month mark, maybe by the 12th month, i will have lost 70-80 lbs. Yay!

Great Job! Keep up the good work

Oh what a great feeling to get into jeans that were once "just a dream". In a few weeks those will become baggy and you will just HAVE to buy a SMALLER size. What a great feeling....
