You should be on an advertisement! You look amazing! What a transformation! I weighed in at 204.8 this morning, trying to get to the Onderland weight! I don't see it in myself like I do others, yours is very apparent! Congratulations! -
1st pic taken on 12/15/09 (7 days before surgery) 2nd pic taken 12/29/09 (7 days after surgery) Not sure how much I have lost thus far. It's not so noticeable, but everyone I know has commented that they can tell. I just can't wait til I can. =)

It really starts to show up in your face first! Just keep it up, you will have to apply yourself with a nice high protein and low carb diet for awhile. As of yesterday, I had lost 60 lbs in five months. I really love having the band as my tool, I feel like we are in a partnership. You will be looking good in a couple of months you will need new clothes and underwear too!!~~lol! Keep in touch! Good luck! -
Great Job! It is work, as we know, even tho we have the band, and Thank God we do, we still have to keep on pushing that weight down! Good Luck, you look awesome.

Great progress and photos! You look wonderful. Did you have to have any plastic surgery? 145 lbs is a lot of weight to lose, a whole person. Wonderful -
You are moving right along, and in the right direction. You will be happy with the Band, it will definately change your life and the way you see food. Good luck with the Journey.

I have been banded five months, It is just habit. We have to modify our habits, and that is a hard thing to do. The band does help! I have not heard my stomach growl for food but two or three times in five months. When I was bored, I would stand in front of the fridge and look for something to eat, I don't do that anymore! It (band) takes the edge off hunger, and I workout more now, takes the place of eating. You will alway have "Head Hunger" and will learn how to deal with it! Promise. Good luck!

Not Meeting a Goal~Depressed or Blessed?
janetsjourneytoslim commented on janetsjourneytoslim's blog entry in Blog 75574
I feel blessed, I got sick with a cold two weeks before Christmas and had to take meds, then had a Colonoscopy on the 22nd! Well I did not make my goal for Onderland only by four lbs. So I am blessed that I lost more weight! I had a wonderful Christmas with Family and Friends! Lots of Laughter and many Compliments. I got called the Skinny Girl~ Now thats a great Christmas Present even if I missed hitting the Goal I set for myself. I will be there by the New Year! It will be wonderful to be in onederland! No new years resolutions for me, just lifestyle changes! I already feel like I have a newbirth! Things have changed greatly for me with the band in place. I love exercising now! My new Hobby is the Gym. I asked for Gym Clothes for Christmas, size M!!!!! Not 24W's~~~~Yeah! Not Depressed Here~Here I go !!!! Happy New Year ALL!:Dancing_wub::thumbup::present::thumbup::bye::thumbup::drool: http://www.TickerFactory.com/weight-loss/w0BzzFA/"> -

So sorry to hear about your home back in Oct. I lived through it in 1989, it is hard. Love your new head shot! Hope you have a Happy New Year and things begin to look up, I will keep you in my Prayers!
-
Happy New Year to you. Hope your Christmas was good, I do have to say, I have had the Apple Pie and Ice Cream! But, It was my present to me, and I worked my A** off at the Gym tonight trying to get it off! I am getting another fill on the 7th of Jan., I can tell I am hungrier right before my fills! Hope you are doing good.

I love that I can "Move" now and not get out of breath! I had trouble with osteoarthritis before the band and taking off the weight. I was taking expensive Celebrex for Pain in my legs and feet, and wearing high heels was out of the question anymore, my feet swelled so bad and my ankles. God it seems so long ago and it has only been five months tomorrow! I have not taken ANY meds since. You will get your fill, and you will learn to live with the fills and see your weight start coming off, don't get discouraged, just take it a day at a time. Plan your menu one week in adv., no more, when you are through with that week it will just roll into the next week. I DO weigh everyday! I do go to LapBand.com and log my food, moods, exercise everyday. It keeps me on track, and that was something I NEVER did or wanted to do before my band. I went from size 24 W pants to 16 R now(jeans) Other styles of pants 14's! You look happy & I know you will do well,keep in touch as you go along.

Hi mary, you look great! I feel the same way, when I get to a 10-12 size, I may want to stop taking off the weight, I don't want to lose all my butt! LOL My husband says I will have a case of the Gone A**, he might be right, but for now, I like losing every month! (And not gaining it back!)
-
Thanks Wonderwoman2009! You were banded on my Birthday! I turned 56! How about that? I have about 40 lbs to go to my goal, worked out tonight at a local gym I joined a couple of months ago, I can tell it really helps. It was hard at first tho! I am dead set on getting to my goal next year, lets keep the Journey going, best wishes to you.

I was so big, I would not dare wear a swimsuit, but it was so hot I was miserable and could not join in the water sports or games.
