I just saw a friend I hadn't seen since Feb. Now my family knows I have the band but friends don't. I just don't see the need in telling everyone. Anyway I saw her tonight and she said "boy you have lost something." I said yes about 40 somethings. I was so happy some one finally noticed. YEAH!!! That just made my day. My family is great they have told me all they could tell, I just thought yeah right....I could tell anything except my clothes are falling off me. Anyway I just so excited I had to share.

I am really going to have to buy a few pecies of clothing now, at least for work. I can't wait to see what size I will get into.

I am so proud of you Kim. You are doing great! You are going to be at goal for sure by next spring at this rate. Just think...not worrying about shorts and bathing suits! You go girl!

Woo hoo Kim! Feels great when someone that dosent know about our band - notices our weight loss. Thats the best NSV ever.

And -40? Yep! Id say you should be showing a good bit.

Keep up the awesome job!

Kim You should be so proud of your self. I know i'm proud of you... 40 pounds is alot and people should take notice... but it feels so good when they actually tell you they noticed. Keep up the good work!!

Enjoy the compliments, you deserve them, with each one you get it only gets better and better and keeps you motivated to continue to succeed

COngrats to you on the 40 " somethings" Keep it going!

Let us know how it goes.

Alrirght I did it..finally went and bought a few new tops...I was a 26/28 fitting pretty tight and I am in a 22/24 (and it's not tight) in just over 7 weeks. That was a great feeling for me today. I am also finally scheduled for my first fill on Tuesday...I am so ready for it. I am on the tall side they didn't have any pants long enough for me,(found a plus size consighment store here) I will keep looking because I want to see what size those are. Hope everyone has a great weekend mine has started out very well.
