Pam's journey

[pamvanzant 0]

I have been banded for almost two years. Have gotten to a point where I haven't lost much but also haven't gained. More inches than pounds. Went from a tight 22W to a regular 14. I am to the point where I look at my clothes and not my weight. Get discouraged otherwise. Look forward to talking to everyone.:thumbup:

to be honest i care more about inches than pounds...hell if i could still be a height of 5'6 and weigh 250lbs but fit into a size 12 i would be happy as hell!!! but that aint reality...lol my goal weight is 170 at the least, i still want meat on my bones..jus porportioned.....so for u to have gone from a 22w to a 14 is awesome girl!!!! ur still loosing "fat" if ur going down on dress sizes.... so u shouldnt trip about the scale. the day i can fit a 14 i will probably drop to my knees and thank god...
