    Happily Lightening The Load

    Various pics of me after having my Lap Band placed on 2/25/08. When I was banded, I was a size 26/28 and weighed 325 lbs.

  3. Happy 35th Birthday Brinabrina77!

  4. For all of the newbies who are wondering if they will ever reach their weightloss goals: "Everyone who got where he is, had to begin where he was."

  5. Hello Everyone: I was banded in February 2008. This makes me 4 years post op. (I still can't believe it!) I think that I am doing pretty well. I am down more than 100lbs and have maintianed that. I still have about 30lbs that I am working on losing. How are the rest of the 2008(and earlier) bandsters doing? I know that when we all initially were banded, we reported to this forum/website like it was our parole officer. Now that we have been banded for a while, I am seeing less and less of those who have been banded for a year or greater. This site is still an excellent and frequently used resource for me. Hearing from you guys keeps me going. So here is my roll call to see how the 2008 and earlier bansters are doing? Share your up, downs, advice given, or lessons learned.

  7. Just looked at your progress pictures. Great job!

  8. Know your self worth. Make sure you only deal with those who can afford you.

    Shoe size question

    Hello everyone: At my highest weight I wore a 26/28 in clothes, and a 9.5w -10w (sometimes 11 for the width) shoe. Now I am a 16/18 an I almost fell out when I realized I now wear a 8.5 shoe. People told me that you feet shrink once you lose weight. Of course I did not believe them. I am noping that my hard-headedness will shrink also.
  10. Before criticizing someone, walk a mile in their shows. That way when you do criticize them, you'll be a mile away and have their shoes. :)

  11. @dramastar: I have lost about 125 lbs. I had my surgery in February of 2008.

  14. Look, Mr. Ben & Jerry, I am *not* that type of girl anymore. I don't care how delicious your propositions are, you are not coming home with me tonight. The relationship that we had was unhealthy and I have moved on. I'm leaving now because I don't want to cause a scene. (Lol. I had a public fall-out with Ben & Jerry icecream in Walmart today.)
