I have 7 lbs to go to reach my 50lbs in sixth months goal. I'm gonna do it, I'm gonna bust my ass and DO IT! But at 50lbs I need to award myself. I can't think of anything. I need some ideas. Besides reaching that 50 mark, I want something to look forward too, something else to work for. What do you guys think?:confused2:

I love love love love your profile pic Pennylane.

Conquer And we will conquer our fears. I :biggrin: u

Oh Ghostbuster, How cool is that. Congrats girl.:biggrin:

What a great post. Really uplifting. Thank you. I had to cancel my third fill because of the flu and I couldn't reschedule another until August 20th. I have been really struggling lately and could pretty much eat whatever I want. Your words give me hope. Thanks, babe.

congrats Karen! :biggrin:

When someone is on drugs and they are going through withdrawal they will have dreams they are using. Vivid dreams and they can actually "feel" the drugs. They can wake up feeling as if they have had a hard night of partying. I wonder if you are having the same effect with food. Your body might even be trying to digest this fake food. Or perhaps your just really hungry. Maybe you should call your Dr. and tell them, especially about the pain. He might have had a patient that has had these experiences, or he could tell you something productive. Either way, I'm sorry you are experiencing these things.

Hi nice to meet you Tina and bander. I'm Tara.

Hi. I've lost 40 but I started at 320. Just keep swimming, Ms. Mary. I think it will happen for you.

I started at 320 and I am 289 now, my official goal is 180. My fantasy goal is 155

Crying Hi Queeny- I didn't get the fill, I have to reschedule. But I'm staying positive.:biggrin: Thanks for asking

Glad- I laughed at your mistake, I hope you don't mind. I'm sorry to read about your partner. I know that must have been hard, but I'm glad you made it past. Whoa...you have lost 160 lbs? Goodness gracious mother of mary!!!! Way to go! You must feel like a whole new person. Congratulations.:thumbdown:

I don't have to set up a lawn chair on capital hill to know that Bush is a horrible president. All I have to do is fill up my gas tank, send care packages to the men I know overseas right now in a war we can't get out of but that the US should never have begun, or try to get my taxes togethor with my partner. All these things tell me he is was and is a train wreck for this nation.

Thank you Kjeter. You are looking fantastic by the way.

Amen SNT Maybe that will change one day.

Day of Surgery was Feb.27th 2008 and weighed 329. I weigh 289 now. So 40 lbs since surgery. Not as fast as others but I don't have an exercise routine even though I am working on getting one.

My eyes teared up. So sweet. Do me a favor and go hug your daughter for me.

I love you.:thumbup:

:thumbup: And here is every smiley I could find to express my joy at this great news! :cheers2::hurray::party::wub::cornut::clap::w00t::w00t::thumbup::woot::Banane53::Banane20::tt2: Congratulations. Now you look great AND feel great.

Thank you Maggie. Those 40lbs have been a lot of work for me so I have to be as proud of them as possible. I appreciate you.

I posted these in the pic thread too, but here they are anyway. I was going to wait till I saw more difference but I need to get more involved in my own inspiration so Here they be. Me. Before 5 mnths This is kinda scary for me seeing as how I haven't lost all that much, but it's 40 lbs, and its 40 lbs gone from my knees and feet and my heart. I am 40 lbs healthier and here are my pictures.

I did have it done at the bossier hospital. I don't exercise A LOT but I do exercise. Not as much as I should. I've been swimming laps lately.

P-a-r-t-y Hi guys!
