No I didn't get your message.

I was just thinking about you and wanted to say hi! How are things? I am getting better everyday... I really do feel like I still have my band.. its totally weird, and get this, I have now lost 12 lbs. can you believe that? I am almost in the 180's. yahoooooo I can not belive it. what am I going to do when I hit the 150's. you might have to fight up here and pick me up of the ground. lol I am loosing more weight now then the last 5 months with the band.. go figure!!! talk to you soon, your friend, Francesca

But for real, when people have arms or legs removed, they still feel the phantom for a period of time. You probably have a combo of both phantom plus the scar tissue. Plus your belly is healing now. Just keep up the good work, Miss Boop. That is what I said to Dave just the other day. I really do feel that way. I still have restriction and I am going to use this to its fullest!! I am feeeling better, not 100% yet but I am getting there! I have a check up today. oh and I weighted my self today. I have now lost 11 lbs. yahooooooooo I am 193 I have not been this weight since I was in 9th grade. 20 years ago.
