PLEASE KEEP THE PICTURES COMING!!!!
All these pics just get me more and more anxious for me surgery. I'm waiting for a date. I was ready to jump in both feet 1 1/2 months ago. I'm just so excited. even more so after seeing all the before and afters.

:help: Question :hungry:
how long have you had the band and what is your diet like today?
examples of a typical meal would be great.


THANK YOU TO EVERYONE FOR BEING SO WELCOMING!!

Ok, here goes. The horrid - never seen by human eyes outside of my home - before shots with the progress so far....

In my defense, those first shots were 10 days after surgery and I was recovering from a lot more than band surgery. I really didn't give a hoot what I looked like. I was already down 20 pounds in those first pics. About 100 lbs to go!

Don't have the best selection of pics as I am usually the one with the camera -- I guess that way you get to avoid having your own photo taken LOL!! But here are some befores from my sister in law's wedding which was 5 months pre op -- I actually lost 20 lbs to be in the wedding! The afters are just a few weeks ago before my daughters dance recital (that's why I am crouched down). I have lost 60 pounds so far, Ithink of these photos as durings -- not afters! OKAY, skip this post it won't link -- I have the pics further down........

I put this on the Gone for Good Club thread, but had to share it here too. Check out what my SIL made for me today! I can't stop watching it! *laughs*
