 And this one was from January. I posed with the day's NY Times to show that I wasn't faking my pics. AND, of course, that was challenged as well.

In case anyone was wondering how my weight loss has held up, here is a

Oh, c'mon, Bette. Admit it: that NY Times is a mock-up you printed off your inkjet printer.

And very, very convincing.

That's funny !  Do people actually deny WL with the band?  I was a quite a skinny chick with the Band (because I couldn't eat at night - I realize now if I could change that one thing again, I could be thin again enlightened).  Oh!  It's that whole picture stretching thing that I don't think you've ever done.  You've had great weight loss with your band Bette.  I don't think anyone who has been around would try to take that away.  Cute though.  It reminds me of those "Body for Life" pics that I used to be obsessed with . . . (I took some too!)

 

Have a wonderful day!
