Personal Milestone


Recommended Posts

I weighed myself this afternoon, and I FINALLY got down to 180lbs!! This is huge to me because I haven't weighed this much since I can remember...

It's not just about the number on the scale what I am most excited about is that I am 2/3rds of the way to my goal, only 33 more lbs to go!! I really can't express how pleased I am with my lapband and I am so thankful for Dr. Ortiz and all of the OCC and of course all of you wonderful bandsters that are so full of support and inspire me everyday!

I am finally in most of my size 10 pants from college and I can actually say I don't hate the way I look in pictures lately! Oh and my son got a new toy digital camera yesterday from one of those mail-in cereal offers and took my pic (it's only like 2megapixels so the quailty is not so great) But here I am in a size 10...

That is so awesome! You are such an inspiration!!! I am 5'3", so I use you as an example of what can be done all the time. I can't wait to be in the same position as you. When I met my husband 13 years ago, I weighed 145 pounds and that is my goal for the first year. I remember how great I felt at that weight and of course falling in love didn't hurt. ;)

Anyway, congratulations! You look fantastic!!! Keep up the great work and keep on being the inspiration you are.

You look so much younger and happier.

I think that you have lost more weight than the adverage person will lose.

I can see your curves in this oufit much more than in the beautiful dresses.

I am so excited for you and with you.

I go for my first fill today at 1:45 PM...can't wait to see if the fill takes me to a better place.

thank you Michelle for all of your helpful sharing

OMG! WOW! You look HOTT!

I want to say thanks for sharing all of your stories and pictures with us on the board. You really are my band hero and one of the reasons that I decided to go ahead and get the band. Thank you!

You are doing great and keep up the awsome work.

Awesome Michelle, You Look great and you are doing amazing. I also am singing the praises of the OCC team and my band. I have only had two fills and am not getting full restriction but it is still helping me to be motivated and it gives me some boost in my self control. I am looking forward to fill #3 when I know what all of you are talking about but right now the weight is coming off if very slow.
