I've noticed that I can eat again too. Now that I'm able to eat a little more it worries the crap out of me too. I'm down to 175 from 308. Which, 135lbs is amazing. But, I'm terrified that my weight loss has stalled out almost. I think it's just that fear of failure coming back to haunt us.

Same with me 130lbs down and wanting 20 more. I can eat now without getting sick and that makes me nervous that it'll lead me into old habits. But, now I have the tools to keep myself in track. Mind over matter, right!? Lol congrats on your loss!!

Size 28 to 12 so far.

I went to a party on Saturday. Well, we all ended up getting in the hot tub. So, all my clothes were wet. One of the people that lived there handed me some dry clothes. I asked what size they were and his response to me was "you realize you're the smallest one here, does it really matter what size they are?" Lol made me stop and realize I'm not the 300+ lb girl anymore.

8 months 125lbs gone!!!!!

Nope, I am an insurance specialist. Lol but, I love doing my makeup now. I love waking up every morning and actually putting it on and dressing up. ????????????????

I feel like I'm on top of the world! I've never been so happy in my life.

I love when people don't recognize me! Lol

Cute!!! Where did you get them? I look and look but can't find any that I like! I bought these on Amazon! I just searched knee high boots.

Being able to wear boots!!

You'll definitely need clothes before all the weight is gone.

Hahaha thanks! That was my homemade ugly sweater! Lol

I haven't been on here in awhile and wanted to let you all in on my progress. 118lbs down 7 months post op. Surgery May 2nd, 2013. Feeling amazing!

I got carded at the gas station the other day and the man didn't believe it was my ID. I had to explain to him that I have in fact lost a lot of weight & then proceeded to tell me how stunning I was and that he bets all the guys and girls are chasing me. Hahaha Surgery Date: May 2, 2013 - Amount Lost: 96lbs

It's the way your body heals. They just happen to the unlucky. Lol a stricture doesn't really have a feeling. It just happens when you take something in. That's when the symptoms start. Surgery Date: May 2, 2013 - Amount Lost: 55lbs

Definitely not! strictures suck. Surgery Date: May 2, 2013 - Amount Lost: 55lbs
