160 lbs

I just celebrated my 38th birthday on the sixth of October.  It was nice but not like the times my significant other and I had in the past. (He passed away March of this year)  But I stay strong and I am still standing.  I have to my 3 years old daughter needs me.
I did have a wow moment this pass weekend I am now in a size 14 clothes from Lane Bryant started out a size 22/24.

I have lost a total of 74 lbs - 35 more to go before I reach my goal.  My one year anniversary will be on July 31.   I am proud of all that I have accomplished and hope to continue this journey with such great progress despite all that I have been through.  Hopefully by December, I will have reach my ultimate goal 160 lbs and a size 11/12.

Just a quick update.  I have lost a total of 68 lbs to date.  Taking one day at a time but still loving my band.  Just started my exercise routine back.  And I am feeling better already.

I have not been on the board for a while but I am making progress in terms of weight loss.  I am now in a size 16 clothing down from size 22/24.  And have lost 59 lbs.  
On the down side, I lost my spouse of 18 years to a heart attack on March 14th.  RIP-Garner.  I will continue my journey as he would want me too - hold my head up and shoot for the stars*****.

Today I went in to get some of my saline remove after being miserable for the last 3 weeks and was not able to eat anything and when I say nothing I do mean nothing,  I have basically been on a liquid diet for the last 3 weeks.  I asked Dr. Mejias for a slight unfill.  He removed .5 ccs so now I have 1.5 ccs in my 4 ccs band.
The good part is that  I have lost 9 lbs since my visit 3 weeks ago.  I felt instant relief.
