    Hello it's so good to catch up again it feels like all the people I was with as I was going through this have dropped off the site.. Still I guess you get to being busy like i am nowadays. Sounds like you are doing really well. Me too I am in a medium to large depending on the make and sometimes choose XL for jackets so they fit loosely. But it is a great feeling to look at my legs and think wow I can see a real shape and not a blob! :-))) even my shoe size has changed hahaha

    Hellloooo :-)) I would have missed your message had I not looked in my activity tag... Which must be new as I don't ever remember looking at that before.
    Yes I have had problems with my hair falling out and I take biotin 3 times a day as near too as I can and now I don't have thick hair it's an illusion hahahah. I tell myself if it gets really thin I will wear one of my wigs hahaha I have 4 .. How are you doing. I am doing great.. In a size 12 from 20-22 and feel good no more diabetes which was the main reason I did this op good to hear from you.. Post on my wall next time or I might miss you and I don't want to do that :-))

    Hello Again,
    Oooh steamer bags that sounds pretty cool and easy (which is what I am all about). How does it work?

    Listen, you cannot compare yourself to others so just stop doing it. It is so counter productive, believe me I know. I used to read some of the posts and think to myself "what is wrong with me"? I would go "darn what the heck"?, I am not losing like everyone else but then I look at the persons profile and see that they weighed like 350 lbs. Trust me their weight loss will slow down at some point too. Lets not forget that there are even some people on here that started out at our weight and lost fast too. I just know there are so many things to consider like age, weight distribution (like you mentioned) exercise levels, muscle mass, hormones and so on . I just remind myself that this is my journey and it will never really be over so I am in for the long haul. 4 pants sizes lost? That is incredible. I have to say that my fat was pretty much spread out everywhere and I was in a 16 or 18 and sometimes a 20 and am now in a 10 or 12 depending on the maker. I just plan on enjoying the journey and learning new things from other sleever's like you. Keep up the good work, we can do this!!!

    Glad you are doing very well.. it is quite a journey isnt it.
    Roxanne apparently died of a leak the details if which were shocking to me.. Thing is I can't share them as I was not there to see them first hand just have had conversations with someone who knows a lot about it. The details are heart wrenching she had 3 children..and a husband she left behind ..I can't dwell on it it makes me too sad .. Job is only just starting properly next week but I enjoy being creative. I am working in clay and learning about Raku which is amazing .. Will write another blog soon ... Just you don't have much to say as you go on..and I don't want to get boring !
    Keep in touch love Hev
  9. I am doing great. Feeling great and still loosing. Not quite as fast as I want but it is coming off. Have you had a salad yet? Sorry about the lady who passed. I did not hear. What complications happened?
    Are you still enjoying your job and getting to your art work?
    Stay rested and rest your mind. Take time to get away! Praying for ya! Mel

    Hi thanks for your message How are you doing? I am doing ok .. Just feeling so tired but starting a new job and all the madness that has been going on with the jeep didn't help. Also a lady I had been speaking to on here didnt make it..i have struggled with that because from the details she shouldn't have died.
    So just mentally and physically exhausted. I fell asleep at 8pm tonight and just got into bed at 10 and the phone rang .. So now I am wide awake.
    How's things with you ..yes I am still losing weight .. Not able to eat a lot.. Still learning my boundaries of what and how much I can eat after 10 weeks!
    Good to hear from you. Love Hev
  11. So crazy I always post to myself!
  12. So I am looking at the BMI and obesity rating. I have to be 115 not to be overweight and to have a good BMI. Gotta work hard!!!!
  13. Have not been on here for a while. Caught an illness at a training and it put me in the hospital. 22 lbs of fluid sugar water put on. Now so upset, it made a set back but just have to loose 2 more lbs of fluid! Into the 6th week and starting over it feels like!

    Thanks for your message re protein that's interesting I must find out about that. Yeah yesterday i had buyers remorse! Thinking what the hell have I done to myself! ... I guess we all have times like that once in a while.
    I have a thyroid dysfunction too but my weight is steadily going a pound at a time but every now and again I will have a week at the same weight which is ok as i prefer it to go slower so i can keep up with the toning!
    I am at 202 pounds waiting to lose that 2 to get under 200. I started Jillian Michaels two days ago and it nearly finished me off :-)
    Glad you are doing ok. Thanks again I appreciate your comments on my blog :-)
  15. Today 25 lbs. I am seeing it more in my clothes than on the scale. I believe my hypothyroidism is keeping me from just seeing it fall off. Working hard to get it off!

Loose Skin

by mgreen on 07-23-2013 at 07:21 AM
FYI: I was told if you go to the Burn Center a specialty like Shriners Burn or one of the university burn units, they will remove your loose skin for free for burn victim grafts. I am not sure where or if, but a friend told me her cousin had it done and the surgery was completely $0 because they use it for grafts!
