OICU812 Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 Last weekend made 6 monthes since my banding. 6 monthes ago I was 370 lbs and my dr. told me that he would really like to see me down around 250 and more active. This morning I was 253 and very active. I haven't reached my goal yet, because I don't have one. I just wanted to be much healtier, so then again, maybe I have met my goal, but I keep setting new ones. I wore one of my old belts today, just to show how many inches I have lost. There is now 17 inches of belt hanging past the buckle where I used to use the last hole. A few more inches and I think I will be able to make my wife a belt out of what is left over. I have bought new jeans 3 times since being banded and it is time to buy some more. This band is costing me money, but I'll gladly spend it.

tnm75 Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 Way to go! And hey... the money spent on jeans is probably not nearly as expensive as the money we used to throw away on unhealthy fast food! Keep up the good work!
