A year ago, I did a procedure that changed my life for the better. It gave me a new lease to live a long and healthy life. I wouldn't change anything thing about it. I have more energy and able to keep up with my kids and chuck. I still struggle at times when I am stressed but having my tool for success has stops me in my tracks. I am so thankful and greatful for all support. No words or appreciation can every express how I feel about you supporting and encouraging me. Thanks again and love ya. Hugs!!!

Went to Lane Bryant to buy pants and undergarments. Anyway, I tried on a size 18, they were to big. So, when I tried on a size 16, tears started falling. I haven't been that size since high school. I am very happy I made the choice for the surgery. I have my ups and downs with it but I over all pleased with my progress. Thanks for all your support and as always keep you great progress as well.

Congrads on your weight loss! It's a very exciting time. I had my surgery 11/30/11. Yep! My surgaversay is coming up. I have lost a total of 119lbs. It so worth it. I need another 40 lbs until I hit my goal weight. My best advice follow the diet and excercise regimen. You do that and you will be a succes.

So I had surgery today for a tubal. My Gyn didn't want to do earlier because of the risks with my weight. Just recovering, no more babies for me. I have twins. They are wonderful, a blessing and a handful.

I am at stand still for about 3 to 4 weeks. I haven't reached my anniversary yet. I need 40 more lbs to loss. Grrr.

9 month ago, I started my life changing journey. I am currently 117lbs less. I a able to do thing like Zumba, play at Bounce U with my kids-even play on the house and obstacle courses with them, walked a marathon, was able to ride some roller coaster rides, walk 3 miles in 45 mins. I still have a long ways to go. I have faith in myself and wonderful support. My support comes from my family, friends and you guys. Thank you so much for the encouragement. I have been slowing down on the weight loss now. I do have to say frightens me a little. Yet, I believe this is normal. The rest of it is truely up to me to excercise. Thanks again

I was inquiring on how many calories I should be eating. Also, what everyone else is averaging? I am currently 9 months out. thanks everyone.

Thank you so much for your inspiration life story. I too would like a copy of your trainers workout. pug.twins@yahoo.com. Thanks

So Veronica! Throughout your journey, what do you believe was your key to success?

Yep! No water

I found this recipe in one of my books. It is certianly one of my favorites. My most recent on mixture is: 1 whole container of 1%cottage cheese (you can choose any cottage cheese) 1 package of sugar-free Lemon Jello mix Mix the jello mix with the cottage cheese together. I scoop out a 1/4cup of blueberries and at to my cottege/jello mix. Delish. I have used also Lime. still very good.

I had my surgery 11/30/2011. I have lost 115 lbs so far. I haven't reach goal yet either. I agree with you about being thin and healthy. It wasn't until recently that I starting feeling a little bit less. I can only contribute that to my clothes literally fall off of me. I do still believe that mentally and emotionally we may still feel that way but with the support and help of others we can strive to feel this way.

Ok! So I have been struggling for about a month with my weight, steady at 202/200. Well, I stayed off the scale for about 2 weeks, did my routine, and had great support from family, friends and this site. Is the suspense killing you? I dropped to 194. I AM IN THE ONES NOW!!!! Thank you everyone! I appreciate you all.
