Men are visual creatures.......at least mine is. He loves to look at me It makes me feel extremely confident and that in turn makes me more attractive. What I find interesting is when I was over-weight, I felt invisable and assumed that I was. Now that I am not obese, I don't know if more men notice me or if it is just because my man points it out to me when another guy is checking me out....lol because I still don't notice it very often. Maybe I'm obtuse............

I had an endimetrial ablation (sp).....one of the best decisions I've ever made My best decision was my sleeve.............

I love my pear shape..........my waist is 14" smaller than my butt. My boobs are almost gone and I can't decide if I should buy myself some new and improved ones once I have been at goal for a year or not. The boyfriend is saying "don't ruin it" and has no interest in breasts....he is an ass man and I will always have that.

I have an ass and a man that loves it I am still losing slowly but surely. He tells me to do whatever makes me happy and that I can't hide my beauty......and it is true. Over 90lbs gone and my shape is the same....I am a PAWG with juicy thighs and I let him worship at my alter. LOL

Did you ever sell this? I know it has been a while.............

I finally made a profile on Plenty of Fish and met a keeper But I have also learned a few things along the way.....and here is a list: you have to have a full body shot, most men are very visual and if they aren't attracted to you they won't put the effort into getting to know you. you cannot "talk yourself into" a guy....you are either attracted to him or you aren't. and a huge reminder to all the women, don't get so wrapped up in trying to do all the right things so he will call again....a man that is truly into you will pretty much snap to attention whenever you walk into the room. I never in a million years I would find that and yet he still does it.....look for that! we all deserve it. I am still almost 40lbs overweight, my boobs have gone away but my butt is going to hang on until the end of time.....and he doesn't see any of it. To him I am beautiful, and for me after almost 3 months I'm actually starting to believe it. Keep looking, but look for what YOU want, not what you can be for someone else.

I find it much more difficult to run outside than on my treadmill........I'm sure it is something I'm not doing properly, but I just seem to hit the pathway kind of flat Any suggestions on how to make this transition?

I found some reasonably priced bras at Ross that I really like and bought 6 of them All of my clothes pretty much come from salvation army or goodwill. I don't mind paying a couple bucks for something I'm going to wear for part of a season if I'm lucky..........

I think we all start out with the "what the hell have I done" thought...........it does get better and then it just gets awesome!

So I'm finally heading into a size 14 regular, down from an 18W That only took almost a year, but I have been keeping measurements. I measure my knees, thighs, butt, waist, bust, arm and neck. Have lost a total of 36"!!! There is 3 feet of me gone! That's 1 yard! Freakin awesome.......I need to remember that when my scale barely moves.

I'm in.....I have been fighting the scale for 3 or 4 months now, but just need to be more motivated and get back to basics. The surgeon's basics are eat small meals 5 - 6 times a day, 64oz of water/fluids, 70 grams of Protein. And I find if I can stick to those 3 little things and do at least 30 minutes 3x a week of exercise I don't have to worry about calories. I love my sleeve and I'm about to love myself right down to goal!

SN - Deakay CW - 185.4 GW -178.2 lbs to goal - 7.2 Don't think I'm going to make it with all the extras this time of year.......but on the plus side my 2-1/2 week stall has ended and I bet I make it by New Years!

I am planning on next summer, but it is taking me a while to get to goal Also if anyone has any recommendations for plastic surgeons in Michigan I would greatly appreciate the input.

I will have those boobs!

Not sure if I'm going to make this goal or not........BUT I DROPPED ANOTHER PANT SIZE!!! This is my happy dance. LOL had to edit.....my first "happy dance" was 2 bananas getting "happy".
