ONEderland day for me! I got on the scales this morning and it read 200.00 so I stripped off my clothes and this is what I got! Oh how I love my lapband and am thankful for a wonderful doctor! I had been at a plateau for a while but I pushed through and the scale DID eventually move! Never, ever quit! Highest known weight: 333 Day of surgery, 3/8/13: 258 Today: 199.4!

War Eagle!

Great, great, great post!

Great post! Thank you for sharing!

I'm going in for a check-up with my family doctor soon. He normally only does lab work for A1C, cholesterol, thyroid, CBC...just common stuff. I was wondering what are other good levels to have checked now that I'm banded (9 months post-op). What specific Vitamin levels, for example, should I ask him to check? The only problem I'm having that makes me wonder if I'm vitamin deficient is because my hair is still falling out. There's a lot of new growth too, but it's still coming out in handful in the shower. Thank you all!

Great post! So very inspiring!

B-52... Can you please elaborate on your comment about being on full liquids? I've heard reference to this before but I don't really understand. Thanks!

How great! I've never taken the time to take my measurements and wish that I had! Good for you!

Agree! Great points!

Thank you all!

Bama53...are you ready for Saturday? I'm an Auburn grad, but I believe you and I can still be friends! I'm married to a Bammer, after all!

A newborn giraffe! Wow

Way to go!!! Now go exchange those jeans!!!! Perhaps you will find you need a 10....don't be afraid to try them on!!!! Love it!

Tonight after trick or treating with my 3 year old little boy, we were sorting through the loot. He found a mini Snickers bar and wanted me to open it for him. He held the tiny candy bar in his hand and said "it's my frotein bar!"! I guess Protein bars are the norm in his life! I'm really glad that he doesn't even recognize candy bars;) We did indulge in the Halloween candy tonight, but tomorrow it will find a new home. I feel gross!

I've been having tailbone pain too! Actually having back and shoulder pain as well....I thought that was likely due to weight loss/shifting, but didn't associate pain in my tailbone with weight loss! Who knew??? I guess I will see a chiropractor soon!

I bought costume jewelry rings to wear temporarily because I didn't want to risk losing my wedding set. I actually get lots of compliments on the "fake rings"... No one knows the difference;)

Horn tooting is the most beautiful of all on this site in my opinion! That's so great! Inspires me to keep on! Thanks for posting!

So wonderful! That must have been a great feeling!
