Britneygirl 65 Posted May 4, 2012 I hit a huge milestone today. I have lost as of today, 50 pounds which is also 50% of my excess weight. I am halfway there. I've been banded for 6 months now. And although it was hard at the beginning, these first 6 months have been more than a diet. It has been a total reprogramming of the mind and body. I feel so great now. I want to hit my goal by m birthday december 9th. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Britneygirl 65 Posted May 4, 2012 Thank you. It's very emotional for some reason. I see pix of before when I was very obese and I get so mad at myself for letting myself go. I don't want to ever feel bad like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ready4animprovedme 54 Posted May 4, 2012 I think that's a normal reaction. I'm not there quite yet, but I believe when I look back on old pictures I'll feel a rush of emotions Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Holly Dolly 575 Posted May 4, 2012 I know how emotional it can be. When I hit what was my original overall goal, 160 pounds, I sobbed uncontrollably! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
