It's been 3 months since my Lap-Band surgery.  I have lost 43 lbs forever!!  I feel terrific.  Here I am wearing my size 16 jeans (started in 24's ) and my XL (started in 22/24) Columbia brand fleece sweatshirt that I got at Savers for $7.99!!  I look pretty darned happy.....COS I AM!!!

I'm with you, still can't quite wrap my head around it, and tho I know how it is intellectually, I still can't FEEL it inside, no matter how many pix I see, or how many people tell me.  I took my measurements today, as I do each monthly anniversary, and the numbers show the changes, but still can't get it in my own head.  Soon, I hope.

Feels good tho. :o)   

Waiting for that big hugg!!

Thanks, I am hanging in there.  It may be tough, but I am holding with everything I got, to  accomplished everything I wanted to accomplish with the band.  Without that thing I couldn't have made it this far. I have 15lbs to go to goal.  They say it take a good 2 years.  I am pretty much on target.  My anniversary is in April.

Keep up the good work
