The white shirt is from last November the grey shirt is from last night. I am half way to my goal. It is pretty amazing to me to see how well this is actually working. Take care.

Just got back from a cruise. Instead of avoiding all pictures, we were thrilled to have ours taken. I was banded 4/10/07 and DH was banded 5/22/07. Between the two of us we've lost over 100#. Life with the band is GOOD!!

The Disney pic was taken summer of 2006. The formal one was on the ship last week.

Ok... Here I am just about 3 1/2 months post op. In the picture of me sitting down on the coffee table, I was just at 400 pounds and that was of course, Halloween '07. In the standing picture (can anybody guess what I am carrying? You get 100 bonus points if you know!!!) That would have been about this time last year '07. I would have been about 385 or so... Then there is the black shirt picture. We had some family photos taken yesterday afternoon and we all got "dolled up" to take the portraits. I felt very... ehem... GQ!!! It was a good day! Yesterday evening while DW was putting the children down to sleep, I went to the store and got some snacky foods. Vegetable crackers, summer sausage, Fancy Shmancy cheese, grapes, and a bottle of Chardonnay... When I was there, I felt like some kind of preppy guy all fancied up and buying cheese, grapes and wine! LOL

Enough rambling! Here are some photos.

Is that part of a VW?

Ding Ding Ding! We have a winner! Yes that is the chaises to a VW beetle. It was a '67 model. I now have a '70 model VW bus. The wheels don't even turn on all but one! LOL I have a lot of work to do on that ol bus. here are the pictures. I sure am glad I don't weigh 400 pounds anymore... Could you imagine... A 400 pound guy unfolding himself out of a VW bug!!! LOL
