Nothing really has been going on lately, I have a Wii Fit and treadmill in the house now, so I've been doing that instead of going to the gym. I'm staying around the same weight going up a few lbs and down again.. but I'm trying to lose at least 40lbs more before Apirl doubt it will happen lol I have a few trips planned for this summer inwhich I'm going to ask them to take most of it out. It will be hard doing this in Mexico with a full band, it's just not the same down there, besides I always lose 10-15lbs when I go.

So I had my surgery yesterday..I really don't feel that much pain. Some around the drain site with there the tube is on my right side. Some around my hip, feels like I was punched in the hip sometimes lol. But all in all I'm pretty good. I'm not sure if he pulled it tight like I wanted, because I still eventually am getting a tummy tuck..but I know I can now see my private part :p I'll load pics soon

oh and it was 11 1/2 lbs

I got a fill about a month ago, it was too tight, I couldn't even swallow. I went the next day and had them remove some. I have lost 15lbs since. I started back to the gym august 18th, walking 40-50mins a day on the treadmill. Then go to work with my husband where I am a hostess (so more walking). Since last week I've gone down 3lbs.

I have a panniculectomy scheduled for Nov 14th. I'm extremely excited about this. I'll finally get this hanging stomach off!


Well that's about all

Not much difference but I thought I'd take one. I'm in size 20 pants in this new pic, that might be why the top part of my stomach might look a little bigger (slightly tight pants lol) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v506/laneydos/newside-1.png

I want to thank my Lord & Savior for being so gracious with me. For allowing me to lose this weight, seemingly effortless. I know I have done good, I've eaten well. But I thank God for giving me the strength to with stand temptations. The strength to keep going, even when I didn't feel good. Thank you my King of Kings!

Here are new side by sides (front and side views)

*Got my first fill today 10/23/06, I have to be on clear liquids 2 days, full liquids 2 days, & mushies 2 days. I got 1 1/2 cc's. I have a 4 cc band. They did it under fluoroscopy and a sorta upper gi, so they could make sure everything was working right. This was a new dr that didn't put my band in, so he didn't know where everything was on me. It was cool to see my insides and my liquids going down. He said I was still pretty tight, that I had some restriction without adding anything.  But he still felt like I needed a fill. I felt so 2, since I hadn't lost any weight in 10 days. He numbed the place where he was gonna stick me.. geez if he hadn't I'd of died..lol I could feel the pressure of him digging on me. OUCH! Anyways they say now that they know where it is (he told me to rmember 2 inches down, in the middle) there won't be a problem getting to it. I was worried though that maybe they don't numb it in the office..she assured me they always do. pheww.. lol
