Hi LapBand Friends,

Time to put up my latest pics, this is my 7th month, and have so far lost 51kg (112.4lb). All has been going well, no major problems which is great!

Take care, Josh. :smile2:

I still love looking at all the pictures. What a great idea to take pictures in front of a door :biggrin: Not only do you see the changes in your physical body, but you also see "in the real world" how much less space you take!!!! Sometimes it takes tangible reminders to really show us how well we are doing

Blue shirt (about 350 ish - taken late 2005)

Yellow shirt (about 300 - taken August 2007 - one month before surgery)

Brown t shirt (taken August 18, 2008 - 167.4 pounds)

It's all about the lighting

I don't -really- look like this, but I surprised myself in the mirror this morning and had to take a pic. Now I'm starting to understand why the celebrities always look like hell in real life -- there's an art to that photographic stuff

6 months ago, I sat here at this very computer and pored over each and every one of your before and after pictures, completely desperate for MY turn. You have all been so inspiring and motivating. Thank you so much. And thank you for indulging me a bit while I post my very first before and "during," because I have a long, long way to go.

Height: 5'7"

Highest Weight: 263 (May 4, 2008)

Date of Surgery: 247 (June 4, 2008)

Current: 214

Goal: 150

the first two are taken a month before surgery at the beach, I'm pretty much at my highest weight there, there not that great of pictures, the dress covers up my giant belly, which is where I can see most of the difference since loosing 40 pounds. The second two are taken at two different concerts in August, I'm about 3 months post op and down 40 pounds :smile:

Ok, so its been a long time since I posted here and I just got a "Happy Birthday" email from LBT and figured I'd come back and say hi and post some new pics. Let me know what you think.
