  1. I'm 7 months out and I've lost 94lbs. I started at 252 and I am currently at 156. I think they said I should loose 70% of my exces weight but I hope I loose more lol. I would like to lose another 30lbs but I am really happy with my progress so far.
  2. Vamp I don't think she was being mean she was giving you some friendly advice. I'm sure Kevin is very supportive and you guys can relate do to having the same surgery. But if you ask any councelor they will tell you to take some time for yourself to grieve the loss of your marriage. Of course everyone wants you to be happy. I don't think anyone here begrudges you for being with Kevin. I just hope you don't wake up a month from now and say what happend and have regrets. I do wish you all the happiness in the world you deserve it. I know from experience it could work. My fiancé was married when we first started talking. He was in an unhappy marriage and we were just friends at first. He ended up leaving her and came right to me. We had a lot of ups and downs trying to figure out our roles together. We dealt with alot of family resentment from his family. People had a hard time with us being together for a while. We learned to spend a lot of time communicating. We learned from the mistakes from our previous relationships. We are going to be married soon and I am ecstatic to be marring my soulmate. I really hope it all works out for you guys. Your in my prayers.

  6. Congrats that is awesome!!!!
  7. I just bought stuff on sale all different sizes. It's also nice to borrow clothes from friends and sisters. I was lucky my sister gave me a ton of clothes that she didn't fit in anymore and they got me through for a few months. Also belts are my best friend! I love shopping now I have to keep myself out of the mall lol. I spend to much time getting ready in the am now lol. I think I'm most excited about wearing dresses:-).
  8. Vamp I'm so sorry that your husband is so insecure. Sounds like he may need some counseling to deal with your transition. My fiancé was a little unsure about me doing it till he seen that it was what I really wanted. He has been supportive until we get in a fight and then he isn't always so nice. Why is it the ones we love are the ones who hurt us the most. I think my fiancé is a bit like your husband. He is insecure and won't admit it. My man is getting better I hope yours will too. But know matter how they act we both have to do "us". Good luck:-)
  9. Good luck and I will pray for you guys:-).
  10. Good for you girly that is awesome :-)
  11. I was scared too before I went I had my surgery. I had a total melt down coming home from the visit with the psychiatrist. Luckily my fiance was there to talk to and give me the support i needed to make the best choice i have ever made! I think everyone is scared it's normal. I know you have a really great support system who will be there for you. Stay strong and know that we are all here if you need us. Feel free to inbox me if you need any advice. Good luck and don't give up:-)
