I am a school teacher and just started my new year. I had surgery 6/14 and am down 32 lbs. I was happy that a couple people at work noticed and said positive things about it! It always helps when I am feeling a little down or feel like I should have tried harder to lose more faster.

It feels sooooo good when people comment about your weight loss. I love hearing that. Just this weekend my husbands best friend said that I looked great and that I must have lost a lot of weight. Boy did that feel good.

I went back to work today since Aug 6 band date and it was nice to hear lots of positive comments about my success so far. The neagative people I work with are changing sides to being very positive about what I did. So far total weight before and after surgery is at 46 pounds. I'm leaning the right way.

Keep the faith Banders.

I have lost almost 50 lbs and when I returned to work I was at a 40lb loss. Everyone started noticing, I get daily compliments at work about how good I look. Unfortunatly some of my students overheard about my surgery and have had lots of questions. I have nothing but lotso support from all teachers and my students.

you are doing so very good. your positive attitude is quite refreshing.

please do not ever get down on yourself. you hold yourself up my dear.

stop comparing yourself to others who are losing faster or more. That is

them......you are you. and you are wonderful.

as for one being our childrens teacher, i thank you for that. for its people

like you who taught my son how to read/write. for that i am most grateful

all the best always.

Yes guys and this is the best decision I have made about my health! I teach children who are physically handicapped. There is a lot of lifting and moving involved. I work up a sweat tht pipit the day. I feel stronger than I have ever been on this particular job. I can tell a real difference. I am still worn out at the end of the day, but i also feel stronger and have more endurance!
