      Good for you. It'll happen before you know it.

      Congrats!

  3. So many things to be happy about. I wore my watch for the first time yesterday in years, I got too big to wear it, but it fits again :) Also, yesterday, I was wearing a size 18 pants and my son said they looked too big. I didn't think that was possible cause I just bought them a few months ago, but he was right! Time to try a 16 and last year I was wearing a 22/24. SO EXCITING!

  4. Haven't checked in here for a while. I ended up with a herniated disc and had surgery on March 17th. I'm on the mend and down 63 pounds (Wednesday will be 16 weeks post op)!!!! Whoo hoo! So close to getting under 200 pounds. I weighed in at 212 this week. Highest weight this time last year was 301. Surgery day I was 275. Thrilled to be dropping this weight!!

  5. 11 weeks post op today and I'm down 46 pounds! I'm happy about this, but struggling with severe physical pain since Valentine's day :( I have an MRI scheduled for tomorrow morning, but still won't have answers until the follow up appointment on March 5th. They think I might have a herniated disc!

  7. Tomorrow will be 8 weeks since surgery. I'm feeling fine physically, but emotionally I've been kinda depressed. Not sure if it's surgery related or just this time of year. Any thoughts??

      R u exercising.. I know it is kind of hard to exercise when u feel down, but force yourself to do some walking. My personal experience is that when I get myself tired .i do get a little depressed..I then slow down and get needed rest. Hope u r feeling better soon.

      Exercise this time of year is necessary for me to feel better.Right now, I'm doing 20 minutes a day on the elliptical, and it's enough.

      Thank you all. I am on an anti depressant and have been for years, so this is not my first time feeling this way. I'm not exercising right now either :( I'm sure it would help if I did.

  8. Going on 7 weeks post op and my son brought home cheesecake today that he had made with his "big brother" during their outing. I was struggling with not being able to have any, but found support and I'm feeling better. Anyone have a hard time around your "old favorites"?

      My husband brought home a huge bag of M & M's yesterday. I had to fight it and I almost caved

      I understand about the M & M's. I was about to go to the vending machine at work when a friend called to see how I was doing since I was back at work. I told her she saved me from giving to a bag of M & M's. Thank God for a support system.

  9. Today marks 6 weeks post op from my bypass. I've lost a total of 54 pounds since the start of my journey. Feeling pretty good about this new life/adventure!

  10. Brand new here... hoping to find lots of support, encouragement, and information. Also, to BE a support to others!
