I just started jogging and I need a sports bra with GOOD support. I am a 36D. Any suggestions???

You are looking great!!! Keep it up!!

Thanks!! Trust me you will reach a size 8 and smaller [if that is what you want]. Take good care of yourself!!

I'm in a size 8 Levi jeans for the first time in I can't remember when!!! I think I was around 23 or 24 years old. I'm so happy I'm bouncing up and down!!!

WOW!!! You look great!! Here are mine, my surgery was 5-13-2011. I started out at 260 and now I'm at 195. I didn't know how much my face had changed until I saw these pictures!!!

Thanks to all of you!!! I really appreciate the encouragement!!

Thanks!!! At the rate you're loosing you'll be there in no time at all. I'm scooting over now and dusting off your spot on the looser's bench!! Take care!

I jumped on the scale this morning and I'm proud to say that I've hit Onderland FINALLY!!! YAY for me!!!:cheer2: I ran back into the bedroom and got my :camera: so that I could document the date and time! WHEW!!! I was beginning to think I would never get here. My scale registered at 199.5 and I'll take it! Yep I'm doing my Happy Dance!! :bananapartyhat::bananapartyhat: Thanks for reading! Smooches!! :kiss: :kiss: :kiss:

@Alota Luv: I know you have done everything that you can possibly do to convince your husband that this is the right decision for you. You only have one you. You have to be the best YOU that YOU can be for yourself and your children. Sometimes men just don't get it. My husband wasn't really excited about me getting this surgery, he was mostly scared but he was behind me all the way. I had to explain the surgery to him a few times and he still wasn't comfortable. All I can say is do this for you and only YOU. I hope everything works out for you and your husband. I will keep you and your family in my prayers. Take really good care of yourself and please keep us posted.

@Nikij: You had me cracking up over here in Texas!!! :D I do have another solution for you -- if you can stand it -- make you some chicken Soup, season it up really good and then STRAIN it to take everything out and drink the broth. It is very filling and satisfying. That is what I did when I was on the all liquid part of my diet and it really helped me out alot. Take care!

Hello!!! I'm 4 months out today and I've lost some hair -- not enough for anyone to tell who doesn't know me but I see it especially when I wash or condition wash my hair. I've been natural since February 2011 so my hair is holding up pretty good. I just make sure I keep my hair moisturized really well and massage my scalp daily. Hope this helps!!! Happy weight loss journey!

@Soup-a-Woman: Soup recipes please!!! I love soup and the only good one that I can make is chicken noodle - minus the noodle!! :D I also make a mean gumbo but of course it's not healthy for you so I try to stay away from making it quite so much!

YAY for you!!! I'm doing the happy dance right with you!! Keep up the good work! :whoo: :whoo:

I have the exact same insurance and I had comorbidities also. I did NOT have to submit a 5 year summary of my trying to loose weight or any other stuff like that. I met with the Davis Clinic in Houston, TX in April, attended the psych session, attended the NUT session and was sleeved on 5/13/2011. Hopefully it will be as easy for you as it was for me.
