Banded one year ago. What a diffrence a year has made.
permalink
I got my health back.
I do not look so old and sick.
I have got of insulin.
I can buy cute clothes. Not that old lady stuff anymore.
I have gone from a size 22-24 to a 14
I feel so much better
From 218-155
Thank you for all your help in getting me where I am today.

Best of all this Thanksgiving I was wearing a pair of size 33 Gloria Vanderbilt Jeans. Standing in the same spot I stood just one year ago in a size 42. See pic below.

One year ago I was wondering what it would be like after a year banded.
It is better than I thought I could be.
I love my Band
I am going to try to post before and after picture but if it does not work you can click in this thread.
www.picturetrail.com/ladysplenda

I would lie to post a before and after picture But the pictures are to big can someone help me do this?

Wow, what a difference a year makes! I'm coming up for a year too (December 9) and I am a totally changed person from what I was a year ago.

I didnt really think I had a lot of emotional issues attached to being overweight, and I didnt really but my outlook and plans for the future, well lets just say they involve STILL running half marathons when I'm 70!

You look so different and I bet you feel it too.

Oh my goodness girl!! You look like a completely different person! You really are an inspiration to those of us just starting off. Amazing! You completely deserve it. You've worked very hard to get to this point.

Congratulations.
