    We had our surgery one day apart. I want to be under 200 so bad before my birthday. It is going so slow. Keep positive too. Mississippi hugs

    Your doing great. Im only at 4 and half months and down 69 lbs. However you have remember that some people don't lose as much as others. People who weigh more will lose weight faster. Im not sure how that's possible but its true. Im at a stall right and have been for almost 4 weeks ...depressing but its bound to happen. Hopefully soon it'll break. Don't try to rush it. You will be there where youbwanna be sooner then you would have without the surgery.

    I'm sorry, honey, I know it sucks. In the middle of a funk myself. Would it make any difference if I told you that you look gorgeous? Cuz you do. Pretty face, all that blonde hair, and nice curves coming to light.

    Nah. And I've got PMS on board, too. But I'm not getting into me today...it would take too much energy!

    Flippin awesome, especially the shots of your face. What a difference woman. You should be so proud of yourself. I know we'd all like to wake up and have the weight gone forever but it's a process and one that is for the rest of our lives. Enjoy the journey and all the in-betweens and never stop rockin' your sleeve!

    I know the weight isn't falling off as fast as you'd like and that can be disheartening, but those pics should tell you you're doing something right! Big difference! You look radiant too! You will get to that goal with some patience and time, I just know it.

    Starting BMI 2/3/2012 - 38
    Goal BMI-24! REACHED and BELOW!! 10/2012 Current BMI 21.0!
    The best goals reached are the ones hardest earned.

    I agree with everyone else ... you look great...you may not have lost the ''poundage'' but you have certainly lost the inches!!!!!! you look like a whole different person.
