Thank you so much Meshelle!!!!! You are such a beautiful lady, even before the lapband!!!! Congratulations again on your magnificent success!!!! I was banded on 16 June '09 and I've lost 16.5 lbs so far. I have 60 more to go to reach my 1st goal of 150lbs. Being that I'm so short (5' 3.5") my IBW is actually about 140. By looking at your gorgeous pictures, I want to believe I "can do it"!!!! You are truly an inspiration to me!!!! Take Care and stay beautiful!!!!

I would like a "sample menu" of what you would eat for brkfst, lunch, dinner and any "snack" in-between meals. Thanks so much and congratulations on a "job very well done"!!!!! -
Hi Anntte, Thanks for the friendship request! Welcome the "land of Lap Band"!!! Have you actually been banded yet? When? I noticed through your conversations with others you were having some transportation issues; did you get everything worked out? I hope so. I was banded June 16, 2009 and I've lost 8 lbs so far. I lost 8.5 lbs pre-op. So, a total of 16.5 lbs so far. Still have a VERY long way to go, but at least I'm on my way....I haven't started an exercise regimen yet, but I'm sure the weight will begin to come off that much faster when I do. Good Luck in your journey.

Oh, you are so very welcome!!! And "thank you" for wishing me luck! I need it!!!!! I would love to post some pics, but I'm not really that computer "savvy". LOL!!! So, I haven't mastered that part yet. I'll keep at it though, and eventually I'll be able to get some pics posted.
Have a good night and Thanks for being a real inspiration to me!

Hi Anitra! I just viewed your before and after pictures. Girl, you look great! Congratulations on your success. How much weight have you lost total? I was just banded 11 days ago. I've only lost 6 lbs post-op. I lost 8.5 lbs pre-op. So, currently I weigh 212. I'm 5'3.5" and my goal weight is 150 lbs. I haven't really started a serious exercise regimen yet, but I know how important it will be for successful weight loss. Well, email me back if you have a chance. I just wanted to say "congratulations for a job very well done"!!!

Amen to that "Deb Up State NY"!!!!!!!! I concur!!!!! These testimonials TRULY inspire and motivate those of us who "have only just begun". I hope and pray (and wish and cross my fingers! LOL!) that this time next year - June 2010 - I will be a walking success story;providing encouragement to others who will be where you and I are now.

Can my body really become a small size?
Ms Yo replied to bunnygirl's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Dear IndioGirl, OMG!!!!! You look absolutely, positively stunning!!!! You look GREAT!!!!! I've been doing a lot of reading and to be honest, was becoming little discouraged. I've only lost 6 lbs since my surgery 11 days ago, and it seems that most people lose so much more than that during the first 2 weeks post-op. Anyway, I'm 43 years old and was banded 11 days ago on June 16, 2009. I'm 5'3.5" and weighed 226.5 lbs on June 1, 2009. I lost 8.5 lbs pre-op and 6 lbs 11 days post-op for a total of 14.5 lbs. I too set a "realistic" goal of 150 lbs, which is about a size 12 for me. BUT.......after reading your testimonial and seeing your pictures........I KNOW I CAN DO IT!!!!!! I WILL NOT GET DISCOURAGED!!!!!! I WILL CONTINUE TO DRINK MY PROTEIN SHAKES, SF JELL-O, SF POPSICLES AND CHICKEN BROTH!!!!! YOU HAVE JUST RE-INSPIRED ME!!!!! YOU should be the "poster girl" for the Lap-Band Forum!!!! Thank You for sharing your journey! Ms. Yo // "I've only just begun"
