    Before/after Pictures

    Yes! I just posted them. I was 399 when I started, about 350 surgery day, 273 now! Surgery 4/9/12 BEFORE AFTER
  4. I've already uninstalled the app and reinstalled several times.
  5. Whenever I try to comment, or post a new thread using my iphone app, I keep getting an error message. It reads: Parse error The remote server sent a unknown response. This could be a result of the forum software plugin being outdated. Tap the "report" button below to send this report to support for analysis. I tap report. But hasn't been fixed. It's been like this for weeks now. I can't use the app for anything other than viewing. Can you please tell me what to do? Thanks!

    Wedding Ring Issues?

    I don't want to get my rings sized until I'm at or really close to goal. I don't want to resize them more than once. My rings are platinum, and I can't afford to keep doing them. So, I went on Ebay and found a gorgeous set in CZ and white gold overlay. The set is so similar to my original in design. They're gorgeous. I paid less than $20 for the set! They look amazing.
  7. Ok....here we go. My NSV's since losing 120lbs~ Can fit in a booth! No longer stuffed into my car, steering the wheel with my belly! Can shave my legs easily! Climb a flight of stairs without sweating! No longer have pillows on the tops of my hands and feet! Can see my veins! My collarbones protrude now! My face has a shape, and it's not round! All my old jewelry fits again! I have ankles and knees again! I take the time to look good in the morning now! I'm no longer the fattest person in the room! I can easily fit in a movie theater seat now! I can get up off the couch in one step now! I can polish my toenails without my stomach getting in the way! Nobody stares at me anymore! I get noticed by nice looking men now!! I get SO many compliments now! I enjoy walking around the stores now! I'm not exhausted all the time! EVERYTHING IN LIFE IS SO MUCH EASIER NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!! I could go on and on and on and on........Can't wait to read everyone's!!
  8. I CAN DO THIS!!

  9. So now that I've lost 120lbs, (and still have 80 more to go!), I've noticed a huge thing. Before, where ever I went, I used to always see people's eyes gravitating to my stomach. That's where I've always carried most of my weight. This made me so self conscious. It was so obvious the way people would look. I mean I was 400lbs. How could they NOT look? Now, I've noticed it's stopped? When I go to a store, nobody looks at me like OMG LOOK HOW FAT SHE IS! What an amazing feeling. I'm starting to blend in now. While I am still fat, I'm NOT the fattest person in the place now. I always was. There's plenty of people out there that are more my size now. I can't believe where I am at right now. We went out to dinner last night for my father in law's birthday, and I wanted to be in EVERY picture! Usually I'm the one taking the pictures because I was so ashamed and DIDN'T want to be in any!!! My mother in law was so happy for me, and was loving that I was so confident and it showed. I'm so thankful for my family, my husband's family, and my friends. I could not ask for a more supportive bunch of people! They are so motivational. I need that. The more compliments I get from everyone, the more it makes me not want that potato chip!!! I can do this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! xoxo
  10. Awe so happy for you both and that you're doing it together. My husband and I also did it together. We had our surgeries a month apart. You will be so happy to have someone to go thru this with and who knows what eachother is going thru!!! Best decision ever. We love our sleeves!! Best of luck to you both. You'll do great.

    Stop reading. When I decided to have surgery I was so psyched. Then I found this site. While I love it and it's been so helpful, it was also not good for me read sooooooo many different situations that people have. I stopped reading because I was making myself crazy worrying about the 'what if's.' once I had my surgery and of course all went well, I started reading again. It messes with your head when u read too much.
