ok.. here is the most recent photo taken 2 days ago and compared to one photo from Dec 2007 at 299 and one from Fall 2005 at one of my highest weights of nearly 400. i have a hard time most days seeing the difference .. but something like this makes me realize.... and i was having  a bad fat day in the new pic.......wonder if i will ever be over that..... but i said i would and here they are..... on profile as well.

Hi everyone ,

I'm a 19 and 1/2 year veteran of the NYPD and  had the Lap band done  in March . 44 yrs old . Married for 13 years with one 4 yr old son . I'm down 102 pounds total with two week preop diet included .  This site has been excellent for info and support , as has been my twice monthly classes with Judi Lynch of The Pastoral Counseling Center in Montgomery NY . She was the first person in the country to have the revision over the bypass and  the classes are excellent .  I also host a one hour weekly radio show called " The Prime Time Show"  on WTBQ www.wtbq.com  every friday 1230-2pm EST.  We have done one show on baraitric surgery and plan to do a special  on the station soon. Plan to retire next July and travel the USA the month of August .   No major complications , the usual pbing  and stuff like that but has been going pretty good the last two months . Hello to all , Benzee

Kandy,
Congrats on your success thus far!!!
I had to giggle when I saw your response to the "you look great"
I also tell people that I feel great and that is the most important.
I am not sure they understand, but those of us on this journey surely get it!!!
