My latest victory!

I had my surgery on August 3, 2006. I was 393 pounds. On Monday this week I got on the scale to discover 297 pounds! I'm FINALLY under 300 pounds! It's unbelievable to me! It's been about 13 years since I was under 300. I have 4 more pounds to make that 100 pounds lost mark! I'm really looking forward to that also.
The first picture was taken on December 18, 2006 on mine and DH's 2nd anniversary. The second picture was this past saturday at the Making Strides against breast cancer walk. I'm the super tall curly haired blonde in the fushia pink jacket.

Alright, let's try this again... the top two are the morning that I began my pre-op diet (April 16, 2007). The next two were taken July 12, 2007 and the bottom two were taken October 14, 2007.

My Before Pictures

Hi everyone! I am not yet banded but I just took my "before" shots today so I thought I'd post them here to officially get the ball rolling :-) I am hopeful that I will be banded by mid-December but I've started working on myself already in preparation. So here I am in all of my glory. Enjoy!

BTW... that weight for today is wrong... it should say 278!

In Progress

Thought I would add a couple pictures here. I hope I can get this too work. My before was taken this summer before the surgery. My current picture was taken last night at a Halloween party. I cant really see a big difference in the pictures but I thought I would share anyway. I am planning on adding full body pics soon. And I want to say that I love this thread. Seeing all the success stories is very inspiring.

6 months

It truly hurts to look at my before pic…….I don’t even recognize myself. Thank God for my band! It is not magic, but it does help me to stay on plan.

April 1, I had faced the scale 272 lbs, second is 10/26/07 @ 210 lbs
