The first picture is at my friend's wedding in August (about 3 weeks before surgery - I was at my high of 313). The second picture was taken a couple days ago - I am now at 265. Almost 50 lbs gone!!

The 3rd & 4th pictures are face comparisons... the 3rd one was taken some time in the summer before surgery and the 4th picture was taken a couple weeks ago.

You are looking soooo good. Keep up the good work.

I would be so lost without my band.

Hi, this is my husband and me on New Years Eve overlooking Sydney Harbour (which is where we live). I hadn't worn this outfit for 5 years (couldn't bear to get rid of it) so I was happy and we had a great night.

7 months and counting. 61 pounds down so far and so happy. It's recently that most people have noticed. I get comments like "you're withering away" "hey slim" etc. I love it! :tongue:

Pre band- May 2008 :biggrin:

Hi. To clarify. I've lost the 70 lbs since I went to my very first appointment the third week of September 08. I go in tomorrow the 5th for my first fill. Was banded on Dec 4th. I feel like a new man already. Getting this tool is the very best thing that I have ever done in my life. Except for getting married to the most wonderful woman in the world 21years ago!!
