MysticstarD

92 lbs in a year is also awsome! Go girl!

If I can ever find a loan with a low interest rate(very sad about it). I hope to share in such amazing results.

You're right!! It's not unrealistic at all.I feel it's all in the determination and desire to get to where you want.I was so tired of being morbidly obese.I was determined to make this band work for me.I lost 115 in 7 months.After my lower body lift I've lost 20 more lbs.A friend of mine lost 130 lbs in 6 months.It's all about changing your habits 200%.Majorly changing your diet,even though it's physically still possible to eat alot of things,we shouldn't ,IF WE WANT TO SUCCEED and we need to exercise daily no matter what.I walked 2 miles every evening,while my family ate Dinner.

Wow! I am so excited you! You look great, I cant imagine that you still have some swelling..... you will have to update the pics in another week or so if there is any difference! I cant imagine it looking any better...your results are going to be phenomenal!!!!

Hey, Julie,

How have you been doing? Are you back at work yet? I think we're all anxious to see more photos now that you are further along in the healing process. You just look so great!

Are you happy with how the scars are healing? That's probably my biggest fear with plastic surgery. The scar from my Lap Band is still red and slightly raised and I hate looking at it every day. Of course, it's better than looking at all the fat that I used to have. I guess every thing is a trade-off.

Give us an update when you can. Thanks.

I had a date Sunday night and got reasonably dressed for it, so I'll post a pic of that outfit when I get home (I'd taken it so a girlfriend could help me decide what to wear!).

The scars on my breasts are darn-near invisible at this point (and I'm a poor scarer). The TT scars are very red and raised -- to be expected. Dad said we won't really assess them until the 3 month mark. He thinks my scars will be bad and, if so, may do some salicilic (sp?) acid treatments on them during the healing process. We'll see. I'd like them to be nice, but honestly, it's not that big of a deal to me.

What IS a big deal is how much I want my thighs and arms done now that I see how big of a change PS really makes! If I can lose 30 more lbs, I can have the thighs done over Christmas. The arms only require a week off work, so I'm less concerned with when I'll get them in.

OK, I was happier than I looked in these pics -- I was just snapping quick shots on the cellphone to send to a friend to help decide what to wear! I went with the pink.

PS: The date didn't go so well -- you'd think new boobs would at least get me from the peck on the cheek to a peck on the lips! Wink.

This is a guy I've known for 6 years. It's probably all too new for him, I guess. Anyway, I'm trying to get out more....
