Down 48 lbs - a work in progress

[LapBandit2013 162]

Hi there!

I took the first picture back in November, the second is from tonight. I am down 48 pounds, and I was so excited to see that I can finally tell a difference. I have a long way to go, but thought I would share my first small achievement on this journey.

Surgery was Jan 18th, lost 24lbs pre-op and 24 post-op so far.

Aww, thank you everyone! I was super nervous about sharing these photos. My fiance hasn't noticed my weight loss yet, and nobody except a lady in HR at my work has said anything, so it's so awesome to get this validation. Thank you!

The only thing small about that weight loss is your waist! 48 is HUGE! Congrats
