skeeterbait8's Story  
Well let me start out by saying the photos that you are seeing........ both are BEFORE.   There is no after at this moment. You see I'm at the beginning of my LB journey.  I'm one of the oh so not so lucky people that seems to not loose that easy.  Even though I'm not eating that much, aparently for my body it is way to much still.But now my husband is a WOW person.  He did the surgery 3 weeks before me and has already lost 58 pounds!  Lucky dog.  Maybe one of these days I'll get it off.  Lord knows I keep trying.  When I'm more optomistic I'll come back and update my story more.  Right now it is rather depressing.
