6 Month Bandaversary 11/21/13



Recommended Posts

Hi All,

Today is 6 months exactly since I had lap band surgery. It was the greatest decision I've ever made. I'm 24 years old and 6'2. 2 weeks before pre op I was 330 lbs. Today I'm proud to say I weigh 247 lbs totally 83 lbs lost so far. My goal weight is 210 lbs and I hope to be there by May. There's no greater feeling then making the decision to become healthier. I went from being lazy to working out 5 days a week and playing basketball one night a week. There's no better motivation then seeing the scale continue to go down. Hopefully 6 months from today I can say I'm at my goal!

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

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
