Banded one year ago. What a diffrence a year has made.



Recommended Posts

I got my health back.

I do not look so old and sick.

I have got of insulin.

I can buy cute clothes. Not that old lady stuff anymore.

I have gone from a size 22-24 to a 14

I feel so much better

From 218-155

Thank you for all your help in getting me where I am today.

Best of all this Thanksgiving I was wearing a pair of size 33 Gloria Vanderbilt Jeans. Standing in the same spot I stood just one year ago in a size 42. See pic below.

One year ago I was wondering what it would be like after a year banded.

It is better than I thought I could be.

I love my Band

I am going to try to post before and after picture but if it does not work you can click in this thread.

Wow, what a difference a year makes! I'm coming up for a year too (December 9) and I am a totally changed person from what I was a year ago.

I didnt really think I had a lot of emotional issues attached to being overweight, and I didnt really but my outlook and plans for the future, well lets just say they involve STILL running half marathons when I'm 70!

You look so different and I bet you feel it too.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
