I started taking new meds for my mood disorder and I was worried that I would start gaining weight. However, the new meds actually have decreased my appetite. I am also a like queasy but that will go away soon. Just thee last two weeks, I have lost 3 lbs. I guess I had nothing to worry about.

It has gone by so fast! One year ago I weighed 255lbs and today I weigh 190! I am so happy I made the decision to have lap band surgery. I have had only 4 fills since the surgery and I am restricted to eating only a 3rd or half of my meals. This has been a great journey! Here is to more weight loss!

I now have a BMI under 30!!!!! I weighed 195 this morning. I couldn't be happier with my band. I continue to be surprized that this is actually working for me!

My goal for the end of the year was 200lbs. And this morning the scale said 199!!!! I am so happy.

Okay. I go back and forth between thinking I am still super fat and thinking that I am super sexy now that I have had the surgery. It has been a rollercoaster of emotions for sure, but the numbers don't lie. 208 this morning! I have lost 47.5 pounds as of today. I have NEVER lost this much weight, EVER! I can't believe this is working for me! In a year since I had been planning for the surgery and changing eating habits, I have seen so much difference in how I think about food and portion size and hunger! It is amazing and I am so happy that this is working for me and that I am going to have a tool to help the weight stay gone this time!
