appreciate it. I was 190lbs when I moved to Texas and discovered "mexican food" and college. I ballooned up big time. I tried dieting excercise etc... but always ended up gaining more back. I guess I just have a hell of a sweet tooth sometimes. Another accomplishment I'm sure some may have already reached but is a very satisfying one is when you walk your thighs don't touch. That is pretty cool. I did my 3 mile walk and realized I had a lot more of a stride b/c of it not touching.

I mainly see the veins in my hands, arms and calves. Muscle deffinition though in my arms and legs and chest is great. Gut still won't go away.

Verry cool, I live in league city just south of Houston. I went from wearing a size 14 shoe to having to slim down to a 13 to 13½ BEFORE PHOTOS before pictures pictures by Andew6 - Photobucket Some after Photos in here: CORVETTE pictures by Andew6 - Photobucket

heh, well, I'd say yeah that was all well and good but I had a peice of toilet paper rip while I was wiping and I felt violated. So i just don't see that happening.

thanks everyone great to see everyone doing well with the band. I just started getting back into some kind of workout/exercise routine so should hopefully see some more muscle gain and fat loss. Anyone else finding it weird to see your veins just poking out everywhere? lol

I think alot of it has to do with my wife being a nurse/ germaphobe. She has friends that swear by it and have even tried to talk her into it for me but with no such luck

Also if anyone knows how to talk her into another chic that would be FANTASTIC lol.

out of curiousity how in the hell did any of you get talked into it. I've been with my g/f now wife for 8 years and have yet to talk her into it.

first time I ever paid attention to this link. But I was banded March 26, 2008. I had a starting weight of 344 and I am currently at 235. not bad for almost a year I guess.

I went to High school in Charleston South Carolina and have alot of family in Colombia SC might know some folks there but don't know if theres anyone there "worth" meeting if you know what I mean.

no problem, If you lived in Texas I could introduce you to some folks.

Looking good. Don't see why you would have a problem dating. very nice butt lol

we broke up after I found out I was allergic. She was married and I'm allergic to lead poisioning

cool deal chica, I met my wife in an AOL chat room like 7 years ago. post pictures of your new butt

You know I was thinking the same thing. I myself and a big big boob man. I can say that they make me happy. That being said. I am sure women are going to think what an A-hole etc... but How many of these same women want a man with a millimeter peter. Ok kinda ranted off there for a min. If I were single and drunk I'd ask you to dance. (drunk b/c I'm extremely shy if I don't know you)

I dated a lady a few years back that had her ummm uhhh ... man in the boat ... peirced. uhh anyways, she said that whenever she wore tight jeans she would get the "O" face. Needless to say she always wore tight jeans.

BEFORE AFTER I'm actually a lil bit more slimmer and musclerly (if thats a word) than in the after pictures now just work alot and not alot of free time.

start walking, walk walk walk. it helps with the referred pain and gets rid of the gasseous feeling. I was up to 15 miles of walking a day before I started running. Find a good pair of shoes with good soles. After a few monthes they probably won't fit any more. I went from wearing a 14 wide to now wearing a 13 ½ amazing you get so big even your feet were fat.

welcome folks, its a good club to belong too.

appreciate it. I've got a few more to go. Keep the faith and follow your plan and you'll lose the weight

sounds like a plan, just give me a hollar.

poor girl. well if you're ever in houston you're welcome to come take a ride in her.
