"Before and After Photos"

I have been asked for some before and after photos so here goes! You have to know I was always uncomfortable having my photos taken so there are relatively few available to show

These are the before photos

And below are the after photos taken on July 25th, 2005, which is about 8 months after my lapband was implanted and I weighed 168 pounds on the day these were taken, a loss so far of 50 pounds.

Perhaps more important than the weight loss itself, I have gone from a size 20 to being able to wear size 12 pants and a medium top.
