Hey Everybody...Piiiiiictures

October 2008 - 270ish (1-2 weeks post-op) April 2008 - 209lbs (6 months post op) Well here I am 6 months out and still working hard. I kind of look like a whole new person and the truth is I feel like a whole new person. I have more energy. I take more risks. I'm down from wearing size 26/28 to size 14/16. I've lost 75 lbs. No complications. A little bit of a slow start when I didn't have restriction and did have Thanksgiving, Christmas and Girl Scouts tempting me with their tasty desserts! Needless to say that is in the past and so are my 75 lbs. For anyone who doubts that the band can work, as long as you trust in it, think positive and are patient, you'll get there!  I still have a long way to go, still have a lot to learn, but things are good and I love my band! Rock on Bandies! Celebrate the little steps! Robin
