I would like to apologize to my band....
Yesterday was my 6 month bandiversary and I have been known to come on here and make quite a fuss about how irritated I am w/ my lack of restriction. I have only lost 33 pounds but I am much happier since last night. I was going through drawers and I found a notebook w/ before pics of my stomach, arms, and legs, and measurements for everything. It was from 2004, and I weighed 22 pounds more then. Not that much more, but my body measurements were insanely different. My stomach was a 46! And now it was barely a 40, and my chest went down 2 inches and my arms 1 1/2 inches and my hips went from a 51 to a 44! I even had my leg measurements and my calves were almost 20 inches and now they are 18. So maybe I'm not losing a lot of weight but I am SO different then when I started 6 months ago. That wasn't even what I weighed at surgery, I was 15 pounds heavier then I was in the notebook. My meas. would be way different if I would have taken them then. Wish I had. Oh well. This is good enough! Just wanted to share :)
