My 7 month bandiversary was Friday. I've stayed at the same weight for the past two weeks but I know I will lose again after my TOM so I'm not going to get frustrated. I'm still in my green zone even though the scale won't budge this week. I'm posting these pictures mainly for myself so I can look back and see my progress. Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.

Before surgery: size 22/24

Feb 25th (6months from surgery):

Two weeks ago when FunnyFlamingo2010 came to Houston to visit. We are BOTH wearing size 16's!!!

.5 fill March 2012. unfill of .25cc May 2012. Unfill of .5cc June 2014.

Still with my lapband with no plans for revision. Band working well since

Thanks everybody :) I really resisted taking a pic but I know I will want it later when I look back. I HATE this bloated feeling but...I love my band.

Thanks Tina!... There are some days I wi**** weren't so slow but other days I'm glad that I am not losing it too fast!! That's one of the reasons I chose this surgery. Have to remind myself of that sometimes when I don't see much difference in the month to month photos.
