Keep posting and checking in , so we don't miss you & let us know how maintenance is going.

WHOOO HOOOO!!!!!!

Awsome !!!!! nailing it on this journey,

Well it's only 85 degrees in Cali., I ate my lunch drank, went & walked for 30 min. around the building at work, I will go home & do my 30 minutes of dancing to the oldies by Richard Simmons , then take my shower ,catch up and go to bed.

Life does get in our ways and stress is no fun , but you know what to do , do the same as you have been doing and have learned to do with the tool our band and you will just do fine , we do hit curves and this seems to be a long and winding road for some of us but we walk r jump back on the wagon and ride it through , so try not to stress to much , remember we always took care of everyone else and put every ones needs and health before or , but now we need to take care of us and our health, so we can be around the and try to think and be around positive things and people , hope every gets out better for you, I mean look you lost weight and then the other half of stress weight by getting away from what was keeping you down , now get your spirit lifted.

Finally Lol.

Well people are starting to say every time I see you it seems you have lost more and are looing good and healthy , I still can't see it and I was getting depressed that I am not at my goal and probally won't be in 2 yrs. in the end of Sept , that's ok I am still a getting smaller sizes and someone said the last few lbs for me it is about 45 ore to lose will and is the hardest , Thank you Alex and everybody for encouragement and the inspiring words because everybody is different at takes some of us longer than others , but I will get there , I asked someone how long it took the to lose a 100 lbs and they told me it took 3 yrs. and they have kept it off for a long time so I know there is hope.

Whoo hoo!!! Way to go I knew you would win because you are a great loser Lol and a bigger winner getting your life and weight back congratulations.

Dang Woman where did you go , I mean the other half of you is gone , I bet you are ecstatic about it Lol , on a serious note you look even more fantastic good job working the brand.

Congrats on losing and keeping it off , Happy banderversery.

My Surgeon does it every time I go to him.

I LOVE that we really get to enjoy our healthy movable lives now , everybody ENJOY ad have a good time in or where ever you are , , look at us traveling , getting on subways, busses planes and bikes and we fit , it is wonderful .

I agree it is so nice not to have to ask for 2 gowns just to make sure everything is covered, last time I had to have a gown on it was hanging off me and ,came loose , .

Lol .

1, 204 + 100= 1,304

See I people do read, they may not respond , & I am in no way trying to be mean but as I am reading , I am thinking and laughing as if this and all the other , pills , diets , fads , weight watchers, tops and all that worked then we wouldn't be here or have or are thinking about was, I am just saying think about it.

Wow never thought about it as I have been at my same dos synthroid for about 2 yrs. now and I had lab work done and it said everything was good , I mean I am a walking zombie lol but when it c to y thyroid it is still the same but I know I am losing inches and the weight is coming off , not as fast as I would like but it is coming off so that is ok with me because I am not where I was 2 to 3 or even more yrs. ago , I am able to do SO MUCH more now , but yes talk with your pcp and your Lap band surgeon as mine told e I would proy never be able to be off the synthroid , and my Aunt is a retired RN, and she said I should ask if the could get it banced since they have all this new tech med stuff and it would be a small incision , so I will have to check in to that also , when I remember , when I go to my pcp next, hope it gets better for you.

SillyAuntDI, that is so cool that they are asking you to speak , so they can see the band does work if you work it , pay it forward and post the pic of you fitting in one leg , just think you may help soe one add a few ore yrs. on their life , like you have done . :)

Ok I am jealous lol I knew I was happy when I could fit in a size 12 , which I have been able to fit in since High school back in the 80's lol , but WOW!!! a size 8 , even though I will never be there , that is o k , can you believe it we are starting to be in the style that is now and trendy like skinny jeans , no ore sweats or stretch pants that we are so used to , that is awesome I am so excited and happy for you.

Have a wonderful time and take lots of pics from your activities , zip lining is fun , I wouldn't have done it , when I started this Journey at 320 lbs then the Surgeon told me I would have to do the pre op diet for 2 weeks , so I went down to 276 , now at 176 lbs I did it , wow I gues I have lost about 144 lbs I didn't even realize till I was typing this , how our lives have changed , I thought about Rock climbing bI am just not ready yet as if I can't face forward I get scared still lol , well you have a exciting , and excieserful time we will see your adventure when you get back and post the pics.
