    lookin great!!! I can tell a big diffrence from your last pic that you posted...now you need a full body shot of before and after!!!
  9. Jason, I just read your thread about having to lose 100lbs before your dr. would schedule surgery and wanted to say I was very inspired by what you are having to do. just keep it up and before you know it you will be at your surgery date! good luck and keep us posted!!

    Average age of a Bandster?

    I am 24 I was banded when I was 23 I think that it doesn't matter about your age all it matters about how much will power and how motivated you are I was looking in to getting the band for 2 years before I got it. Now Ive had the band for 2 1/2 months and Ive lost 50lbs since surgery. I never ever thought that I could be on Clear liquids for 3 weeks, Full liquids for 2 weeks and Mushies for 2 weeks, I never thought that I would have enough willpower to do it. I go to the gym 5 days a week for at least an hour, and I don't cheat, I don't even think about cheating because when that is all you think about then you will! so I really do not think it matters what age you are as long as you do what you are suppose to, what the Dr. tells you, I I think that its the amount of discipline, and motivation you have that will determine your sucess!

    check in please

    Hello! I was banded on March 30th 09... Ive only had 1 fill [4.5cc] my next is scheduled for July 1st! Ive lost 50lbs since surgery with alot of working out! :sad:
  12. Thank you!!! Im down 50lbs now as of tuesday! super exciting!!!! have you had your surgery yet??

  13. I think its like 22dollars to enter in the 5k and all the proceeds go to the Ronald McDonald house that they are building....That would be awesome to have someone do it with me!! lol yea it would be nice if you had a gym right...I do weights on my arms like the butterfly machine where it does your arm muscles I really dont know the real name of the machine LOL but I find it easier to go the gym RIGHT after I get off work so that I dont have an excuse for not working out... anyhow here is the website for the 5k stuff:: Ronald McDonald House Charities of Northwest Florida, Inc. Im so excited to do it It will be FUN lol and HOT and Ill sweat that fat away!! HAHAHA....

  14. WE ARE BAND TWINS...LOL i just saw that you were banded on March 30th 09 and wanted to say HELLO!

    I DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:wink: I actually did it....it was hard but I got thru the 1st day of the program....I was exausted afterwards :tongue_smilie:but felt so much better!!! today is day 2!!!
  16. don't feel bad about that the only reason I work out all the time is because I have a gym at work and I can go straight from work to the gym then I go home. I weighed yesterday and im officially down 50lbs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so im at 250 right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:w00t::w00t::w00t: so exciting. I wish we could bring guests to our gym but its only employees, boooo. I would love to have someone to workout with me the time goes by soo much faster when you are talking to someone. Im doing the Firecraker 5k downtown on the 4 of july you should do it with me Im walking not running in it!:thumbup:

    My new haircut 06/16/2009

    From the album: My weightloss Journey...

  19. Thats good...I cant freakin wait until this next one....I wouldnt wait 3 months again either if I were you... the weight is still comming off just not as fast Ive been slacking in the exersize dept...lol but I will be working out today and weighing in today afterwork so HOPEFULLY the scale has moved again! Ive been having trouble eating to fast and not chewing enough I really need to slow down before I get some sort of restriction or Ill be one of those people that PB every meal which I dont want to even go there. Ive only PB'd 2 times since Ive had this surgery and it was because I was eating chicken and ate it to fast.

  20. Well the hardest has been having to do this on Willpower because ive only had 1 fill so far. the easiest is being able to change my diet all I did was throw everything bad out and start over.

  21. so are you still feeling restriction?????
