So, as promised:

Today, 140 pounds down, off insulin for over 18 months and sleep apnoea long gone.  Shirt was bought in 1985 and not able to be worn until now.  Another half inch off my collar size and I'll be back to 1973!  Scary....  Still losing weight, but very slowly.

 

Night before the op, 02/2010.

Wow! A true transformation! You must feel superb!

Highest 290, Banded - 248   Lowest 139 (too thin!). Comfort zone 155-165.

Happily banded since May 2006.  Regain of 28lbs 2013-14.  ALL GONE!

But some has returned! Up to 175, argh! Off we go again,

Always!  LOL  I fid it hard to recognise the new me, but find it harder to accept how I used to be.  Self deception is a wonderful thing...  Only downside is the tailbone pain, but I can put up with that.

 

We still have some boxes upstairs, unopened since we moved over ten years ago.  Maybe Alex will open them when we're gone!  Hope you're settling in well  :-)
