I was telling someone the other day that I would LOVE to NOT feel hungry all of the time. I can't imagine what that must be like. I can't wait. Thanks for your update, more excited all the time.

AMEN, Sister!! Hoops are last thing we need. Not like this is just a passing thought to have major surgery. Do they have any idea how serious it must be for anyone to come to this decision? I will hopefully get a surgery date on Feb 21 and be on my way, but until then it's a waiting game. Good luck to you!!

Well, I see the doctor on Feb 21 to schedule the surgery, I have my psych exam this morning and will be so excited to finally be on the other side of this venture. It's Feb 15, how much have lost now? It's so great to watch everyone's progress and all of the positive feedback. Some not so positive, but mostly very encouraging. Be Well:)

WOW!!! 44 lbs last Jan 18th. How r u doing now? I am so excited to be wherw u r. Hopefully going to schedule surgery date when I see doctor on Feb 21. Having my psych test this morning. Be well:)

It's Feb 15...How did your surgery go? I don't have a dtae yet, I'll see the doctor on Feb 21. Hope all is terrific post-op. Be well:)

Seems that you all have one or more of the same issues. I don't have any of those, but I do have MS. My right leg has incredible tone which makes it very difficult to walk. I use a cane due to balance issues and falling often. I am terribly lucky to not have pain. I do have restless legs which is under control as long as I take my Mirapex. I refuse to take any of the MS therapies due to the side effects and the fact that they don't make any of the current symptoms go away.I can't wait for my surgery because carrying all this extra weight makes it even more difficult to move a round and it's exhausting. Thanks for this group.

Terrific list!!! I 'm going to make a list also. Seems like a great motivator to stay on track and remember why you're doing this. Congrats an going to the gym. Not an easy task when you want to be invisible;)

Awesome!!! I can't wait to join you in that excitement. I too have clothes that I thought would just stay in the container under the bed forever. Now I have hope to actually wear them again.
