Getting started...

Hello all! Welcome to my journal! Thanks for stopping by :welcome: So far I have been to a Lapband seminar and had a consultation. I will have to be self pay unless I learn that my company insurance covers Lapband surgery, in which case I will wait till my open enrollment in October. I also would like to attend seminars for 2 other local surgeons to get as much insight as possible. I will probably go with Dr. Webb. I am adding a 'before' picture of me which I took yesterday. Once I begin to lose weight I will occasionally add pictures so that 1 I can see the progress and stay motivated, and 2 help others. I really have been motivated to do this as a result of looking at everyone elses pictures, so I think it is important that I add pictures as I go along, and I have to add the first one to show the starting point. This one was taken yesterday (July 23rd 2006)... Below are 2 pictures, both were taken within the last 2.5 years... Weight is probably about the same, but I want to have a few for reference a year from now, and I take very few pictures, so this is a good place to store them. None of these are 'after pictures...I'll let you know once I have some of those :biggrin1: This one was on my 10 year anniversay on a cruise to the Bahamas...Taken in May 2004...   This one is when I was clowning around with my friends singing karaoke - no I really can't sing, but it is fun anyway and we all get a good laugh lol (not sure of the date) I hate it, but it was the only one that had my body, and I no longer where shorts... maybe next summer?!     Stay tuned... I expect to have the surgery within 2 months most likely! I have about 150 pounds (preferably 170) to lose to be at my goal, but I think I will set goals in 50 pound increments. I won't say how much I weigh here until I am at a goal :tape:
