  1. I know  I don't post often. Year 2 is where the real work comes in. I've gain, 20. lost 15/ Had a cancer scare and am now dealing with the flu. Overall I'm doing well, just taking these few hiccups as they come.  The challenge is rebounding and getting back to the gym after each hiccup. It just doesn't leave much online time.

      Yes, there is plenty of room for you here on the loser's bench. I hope your recovery is uneventful and short.

  3. I stepped onto the scales this morning and finally reached the milestone that I was begining to think would never come-ONEDERLAND! Do I have loose, saggy skin? You bet! But I would take that any day of the week over fat filled skin. There is a surgery to help correct that just like there was a surgery to help me get to where I am today. To finally see that number makes me feel even more determined to reach my goal and to maintain that for the rest of my life. So very grateful for my sleeve! Happy Monday everyone:)

      It would be great if the collar could differentiate between those with low IQ ( and really are unable to help themselves) and those with inadequate commonsense.

  8. 5 days to go... am starting to get a little more nervous. Not about the surgery, I've had several (though no abdominal). Just the whole "new life" thing. :D It's going to be great!

      Oh my dear, things are about to become great! You will be so amazed at how those foods that you loved before no longer have that draw.

  10. I am doing great following my brachioplasty that was completed yesterday. Today the pain is worse and of course lots of swelling but holy cow are my arms tiny! Even swollen! It makes me excited for the next phase which will be tummy and breasts 3 months from now.

      Happy to hear all went well, and that you are pleased with the results even before the unveiling! You are a brave woman.

  13. My best advice? Ask you surgeon for the kind of sleeve that doesn't stretch when you used a straw or swallow air. It's worth the extra $10.

      Hmmm, is it too late to have a revision to that type of sleeve? Just asking.

      Congratulations! Does it seem odd to be happy to say "overweight"? I remember that day too, now hoping to get to "normal weight".

  18. I am excited tonight for 3 reasons! 1. I finally got access to a spine expert here in Milwaukee and they got me in next Tuesday! As most of you know I have been struggling with back pain . 2. My hubby is taking me out for date night tomorrow to the house of prime rib. I love prime rib! 3. I bought an adorable dress that looks fantastic on my new thin body that I am going to rock tomorrow night. It's been a long time since I have been out for something fun and if I feel good, we will go out for a movie after.
