Down 90 Pounds In Almost 8 Months!

[NewMissB 14]

I haven't been posting as often as I would like, but I wanted to share my story...so far. I was banded on April 5, 2012 and have since lost 90 pounds. The one thing that has helped me actually see/comprehend the weight loss is to take monthly progress photos. I recommend this for anyone just starting out, since many of us anticipate the physical journey and difficulties, but a lot of people are unprepared for the mental and emotional difficulties of actually "seeing" your weight loss. I sometimes still look in the mirror and see my Pre-op self, and that is why my photos are so important!

Thanks for all the support I've gotten on here, especially in the beginning. Keep working hard everyone!!

The April photos were taken the day prior to my surgery, and the November photos were taken on Nov 5, at 86 pounds down.

Congratulations, you are doing great! I wish I had taken pictures on the way. Today is 6 months for me and I am down 44 lbs but like you said, some days I look in the mirror and just don't see that I have lost weight.

You look amazing!! And are a fast loser! I hope to have your level of success. My goal is -100 in the first year, even though doc says 60 is more reasonable. Surgery date Jan. 30th.
