I don't actually have any photos of me at my biggest (I hid from cameras and deleted any that were taken). I do have a photo of me setting up for my daughter's 18th birthday party - that one survived because there were other people in it (I've cropped them out below).
If you are due to have a gastric band or are recently banded I urge you to take photos of yourself now and regularly as you lose. I so wish I had....
Here goes...............
May 2011 - not at my biggest I put on 2st more pre-band |
30th June 2012 - side view for comparison with above pic |
June 2012 - 6 months post band |
The dog in the pics is my beloved chocolate lab Dobby :D.
I have a little over a stone (17lbs) to shed before I reach my target weight. I will post more pics if/when I get there..................................
Awesome work! Very very good work indeed!

DeleteFantastic transformation,you have worked so hard,well done.Loving your chocolate lab I have a smaller version(6 months old)called Molly.

You are too kind :)
DeleteLiking your website - I'll post a link to it on my main blog page.
well done, your certainly an inspiration for me (getting banded this friday at DP) love your dog also we used to have a black lab Buster, lost him two years ago and now have a cheeky springer spaniel called Dylan x
ReplyDeleteHey Jo :)
DeleteYou are too kind! I hope you are healing well.
My sympathies for your loss of Buster. I lost my yellow lab (Frodo) early last year - it literally broke my heart. I'm sure Dylan (like my Dobby) has done his part in helping the grief lessen :)
