housecatgirl 0 Posted October 7, 2007 Well, I made it to my original goal. I would still like to lose another 10 lbs but we'll see. I went from a starting weight of 175 to 115....so total is only 60 but I am only 5ft tall so it really is alot for my height. I just wanted to catch it before I got diabetes and hi blood pressure and all the things my Mom and alot of other family members have. I'm a little over a year out now. Anyway, as I have said in the past, I'm not here to brag about my loss, I only hope to inspire you all.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jelbel 0 Posted October 7, 2007 Laura, I did not get banded yet, but I will very soon. Did you have any plastic surgery done like TT,or is all of that natural? You look great and you really have inspired us. I'm 5.1" and need to be 100lbs. less. I can't wait. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
benson1029 0 Posted October 7, 2007 wow, is that just from banding? Tummy Tuck? scars? I am definately encouraged. K Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
housecatgirl 0 Posted October 7, 2007 I only have one scar that's still visible and that's the port one obviously. If you look close on the black bathing suit one you can see it. I tan alot since I have a tanning salon so that helps hide the scars. I also scar really well. About 2 mos ago I had a breast lift and my scars are already almost faded. I can't see them when I am standing in front of the mirror about 2-3 ft away. Only closer than that. Anyway, no tt....my doc said I didn't need it unless I lose more weight and then we'll see.
