Princess I'm sure you will do amazing also! Thank you so much for your amazingly kind words

Guys I just got on the scale I'm 168! :-)

@shellbear! i tend to snack more than i should too lol its the lattes that get me! keep up the amazing job! Everyday is a new day. thats what i tell myself!

OMG! Thank you all so much!, your kind words have brought tears to my eyes! like im crying as i type this! lol somedays i really cant belive it's happened and that i have been so blessed. I lost a few friends along the way, but in my heart of hearts i know it was worth it! Im still not at goal but ive taken up kickboxing into my gym routine ill be there in no timeim sure!

ive lost 114lbs as of july 26. Aug will be very busy for me doing this now.

Sadly i have to say yes! Listen to this sh*t: My best friend of ten years ( we are 24 n in college now) is also overweight. At her heaviest she weighed 260 and I 285. She always looked smaller than i because her bottom half is noticeably tinier than her top half ( i use to call her small bottoms as a term of endearment . it never bothered her) we both looked into the surgery together as for we work in the same place for the last 7 years and have the same insurance. She decided it wasn’t for her and I opted to get it done. She said she would be there for me and take care of me after the surgery. ( I live alone and have no family) she didn’t I had to ask a male friend to take care of me last minute and when I asked her to pick up my pain meds it took her forever bc she was WALKING THE TRACK! Lol she hadn’t worked out in forever but **** got real for her after my surgery and hey whatever motivates her to lose weight but couldn’t she drop off my pain meds first! I was there through her divorce in ways that no one has ever been there for me. I work in an office of 6 women including myself. Out of those six women only one is thin. She and another fat coworker got together with my boss to tell her that I could only talk about my weight loss and that I have changed and am a mean person. Now I have always been sarcastic and made all kinds of jokes including fat ones. I did this at 285 lbs now that I’m 171 my jokes r rude and I am conceded. (How convenient) To top it all off my boss is very immature and like the gossip of the office and people are easily put on her **** list (a list u would rather be fired than put on) needless to say I am on the **** list! When I approached her about why we growing distant she said “you don’t even compliment me on my 15 lbs loss. (really! I lost 70lbs and not a peep) l I told her why did she feel like she needed my compliment as affirmations when she couldn’t even mention or be happy for me that I was now wearing jeans ( I stopped wearing jeans when hit a size 24) I have lost 115 lbs but it came at the cost of losing my best friend. I would do it a million times over! J

im 5'4 i started at 285 and 11 months later im at 171.

The same thing happened to me! I couldn't stop smiling all day! YAY US!

I had no trouble but it wasnt the gummy kind. i chewed it into nothing then swallowed. I now take Vitamins daily at home

They gave me vitamins there. The chewable kind...

Thanks Ruby for the add. Im ready and also a little scared shh! dnt tell anyone lol

I got a letter in the mail stating that my ins needed more infor before they could approve me for the lap band, which was weird bc im getting the VSG. so i called my doc today and guess what? that letter was a mistake they took care of it and i am officially APPROVED! OMG my heart sank i was so happy! i will be sleeved on AUG 22 in livingston NJ yay me!
