summer134 23 Posted August 10, 2012 Two years ago today I made the best decision of my life and entered the life of being a bandster. Two years later I have more energy, am an active member of a gym getting ready to try boot camp for the first time, have run my first 5k, am healthier in my eating habits, have more self confidence, and am down about 105 pounds. Sure I probably could have lost more but looking in the long run I've averaged losing just at a pound a week which is amazing to me! Never did I dream how happy I'd be with this decision and how proud I am with myself for sticking to this. It's not an automatic weight loss -- it's a tool to help and I have had to work at it to lose. I have about another 40 pounds to lose for my first goal to get into One-derville and then I think I will start looking more at skin removal surgery because even with the slow loss, I have excess skin under my arms, in the tummy area, and my thighs. But that's down the road. Now is just a happy day! Hope you all are having as great of a day as I am! 7 PattyGirl66, bigenuff, auntielle and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
