its all hype...4 real...no1 pays any attention to me...lol

i was too scared to cut my hair...so i went with glasses...lol

lol....the porter snuck outside and took that 4 us!!!!!

yes i've been at goal for 2 months now....i still work-out just as hard and just as much to maintain...i've been taking in more calories 2 try and maintain....the maintenance phase has been much harder 4 me then losing...

don't b too jealous...i let my obesession with being thin get in the way of my health...i was so sick and weak...i got too thin...i'm better...eating more...taking my vitamins...i got real carried away...im so technically behind...im lucky i can take a pic let alone change the date....lol...my husband said "cute dress but u look like a zebra"....lmao

my insurance covered a panniculectomy...which is just the removal of excess skin...i paid out of pocket for the mini tuck portion of my surgery...i'm not sure how much it would've cost without insurance.

for the first 9 months after surgery i strictly power walked and eventually started jogging...in my 10th month i joined the gym..most of my exercise has been cardio...i had a tummy tuck in august to remove the extra skin from my tummy...i use the rotating stairs at the gym and my legs r pretty muscular except for the top inner portion of my thighs...my arms didnt turn out too bad...so they r last on my list...my exercise routine is pretty hard-core...but keep in mind i wasn't able to do this type of exercise immediately...i built myself up...i wasnt able to jog until i hit 180 pounds...

i got to goal in 11 months...:-)

ur advice always relaxs me and gets my head back on straight....thank u sooooooo much...sometimes i read ur responses a few times....and i am able to relate to u....i wanted to wish you and ur family a very happy and healthy thanksgiving
