Well here I am 8 months down the road. We just returned from New York so here I am on the Brooklyn Bridge with my babies. Thanks!!

Ok now I thought I would do an upclose picture. Hope it is encouraging!!

Although my self-image is still of my 'before' picture, I would say that the truth is told in the 'after' picture (and still losing, albeit slowly!). My Band is at a perfect spot and I am just so glad I made this life-altering decision!

Ok, so I guess this is my first before and after that I am really proud of! I love the idea of before and after pants pics! I kept ONE pair of my big girl pants just to remind me of how far I had come...I don't know why I never thought to take a pic!

Before @ 210ish on surgery day:

After today at 155ish:

I searched for an hour and this was the only before pic I could find of myself. I was probably 15 pounds heavier then that by the time I got the surgery.

Today I officially made it to 75 pounds lost! I'm so excited. I can't tell you all what the last 9 months have meant to me. I have changed so much. This has been an amazing journey. Here are my before and after pics....but after 15 more pounds I'll post the REAL afters.

I am finally going to post some before and semi-after pics. I am 9 months out from surgery now and have lost 80 lbs.

I am not sure if I posted these properly, I hope this works!

I posted this in my August 2007 group, but tho't I'd share with the whole LBT audience....

The BEFORE is on my birthday, July 2007. The AFTER is Memorial Day, 2008. My GrandDoll, Sloane is in both shots. And I've lost a whole 10 y/o -- LOL -- she weighs almost what I've lost in a year!!!!

Sometimes I have to refer back to my before Pictures to see that I have made tremendous progress, Hope to be an inspiration, as many of you were to me.
