Sorry to hear that, I understand how miserable that can be. I hope they can find a way to make you more comfortable for now. How was it repaired before? I'm pre-surgery and have a hiatal hernia that will need to be repaired at the same time. The thoracic surgeon I spoke with is against using mesh when repairing and would prefer to stitch it.

THAT is super cool!

YaY!

very nice!

Is there a place you can go to swim? just a thought.

I was thinking swimming or water aerobics.. both less likely to irritate immune system

Swimming is a great idea. I need to look into where public pools are in my area. The Y usually has them, right?

Whoot Whoot! great job! Congrats!

Awesome way to go !

Wow! You GO GIrl! Happy that all your hard work is paying off!

Congrats Jill

I am also going to my 6 month post op today . Even though its a month late. I guess my doc is doing a scan to make sure everything is ok inside.

So happy for you!! That's awesome!

This is true......a few days ago, I heard someone say that there is nothing sexier than a sweaty woman!

Well by the time I am done I sure am sweaty...I guess that means I am hot in more ways then one LMAO!

Jill that's awesome!

Way to go!

Fab!!! That's awesome!

JillC878.....Hang in there! You can only do this 1 day at a time. We can do ANYTHING for one day. Where are you on your journey?

Jill you are doing such a great job at losing weight.

What seems to be bothering you at this stage?

Keep on going.

That was one thing I noticed too...and liked it...

Isn't it though!! Try taking a bubble bath! I laughed cause my arms fit down next to me in the tub when I lay back now!

Haha so true. I feel my bones on my arms and legs which was strange for me.

How did your visit go?

StephanieRR - Visit went great. They say I am right on track. They also gave me a little perspective, one of them said to me "Have you ever lost 50lbs in 3 months before?" Well, obviously not! Made me much happier

That's awesome, congrats!!!

you are aces!!!! can we now hear 61 minutes??? LOL

kathy

That's awesome!!! Congrats!!!

I think everyone has that fear. Remember, everyone is different, try not to compare yourself with anyone else. As long as you are losing you're going in the right direction. Keep going..you got this!

Congrats! An Awesome Feeling!

Yes! Awesome feeling. Next thing you know, you will have to buy a smaller bra. I am halfway to my goal, so as a non-food reward, I did something I had never done before. Since I had always bought the cheapest bras at Walmart, I went to a foundation shop and had a proper bra fitting - was able to treat my sister and niece also. I only bought one since they are expensive and my body composition is constantly shifting. It was a great girl's day out since I had not seen them for a while. We also did lunch. You have my permission to reward yourself in some way as you reach these victories one by one. Rock on!

I noticed I've moved to those middle hooks too. Aint life grand????

I just bought that DVD today! Now I know what to look forward to?

It is great, but what a workout! BTW.....they do use light weights(at least in mile 2). Happy sweating!

Yikes you go JillC878 and Shells_Almost_There...I'm no where near you too!!!

Woot,woot congratulations!!

"now that's what I'm talking about : )

That must be an amazing feeling! Good for you!

Jill so happy for you!!!!!Just over a month ago i was 301. Heaviest I have ever been. 250 seemed like something so very far away. I am currently at 268.8 and I can not believe it. 250 seems within reach.

Congrats!!
