Hey! Great to hear from you and Congratulations on your weight loss! Sorry to hear of your doctor's "conservativeness" that just sucks. However, your exercising is excellent! I have been just power walking/jogging, need to start doing a little weight training i think to tone. I commend you for your loss thus far, I mean, with restriction, wow, its so much easier to keep yourself in line. I am doing really well. So ecstatic about my progress : ) My little boy is loving my energy levels! And I bet he does this his Momma's purdy. Ha! LOL! Take care Doll! I think you are doing wonderful!

You are absolutely right! What a beautiful tool I too have battled my weight forever. And I too I am still learning. I am so happy that I have a new relationship with food now. And I must say, CONGRATULATIONS! Cuz u 2 are looking great!

Congratulations Doll U look absolutely fabulous! I am so excited about the months ahead : ) U go girlie, yur hott : )

Absolutely! Totally get the feeling....especially since I only weigh now once a month.....its like okay.....ummmm....lol

But I started out as 24-26 in sizes, and now I am 20-22 so i am down ? until I weigh on wednesday : ) I hope its at least five...but u know, the holidays might rear it's ugly head....: ( lets hope my walking since the new year curbed it!

Well its been awhile since I talked to you, lol. My surgery date got postponed cuz i was sick...lol it was 10/27.....i will know exactly how much i have lost to date on wed the 20th....the last time i weight was before xmas on the 16th and i was at 20 lbs gone....so its averagely coming off, lol....but i think inches are coming off quicker : ) No complaints here! U look fabulous! I have been upping the protein and exercise this new year too, so keep up that conviction!!!

Congratulations! And thank u : )

Hey! Thanks for the uplifting comment: ) u look great too! I think I am losing more inches than weight, but i will know for sure on wed. that's fill day for me....and weight day, lol....the last time i weighed was on dec. 16th and i was at 20 lbs. So we'll see at 11 weeks out where I am at! And that's exactly the right attitude..its coming off not on

Hello....And thank u : ) The last time I weighed was on Dec. 16 at I was at a loss of 20, my next fill is the 20th, so I will find out the verdict of the dreaded holiday impact, lol. I have been stepping up the exercise a lot in this new year, so I am hoping to pick up momentum....Seems like I have lost more inches than weight....and I am A OK with that, lol. We'll see what the scale says next week.....GOOD LUCK! I HOPE U GET APPROVED SOON

Happy New Year! Congratulations on all your success : )

u look great! i am only just over 2 months out : ) i have been slacking on exercise....but today is monday and the new year so i am on the exercise train!!!! I want it to come off faster : ) take care & congrats

Word up! You look great. How far r u from goal?

Thanks for the post. You are such a sweety. But guess what? I came down with a yucky sinus infection over the passed weekend. Got into my PCP on Monday and started an antibiotic per my surgeon's nurse, but I am still sick as of this morning. I had to reschedule my date. Stupid F'N sinuses! So my new date is 10/28. Thanks so much though for keeping me positive. I know I am so ready to do this. Now I have to do the 2 week liquid all over again. I have been a really bad girl today with what I have ate too. Guilt really isn't getting me too much, cuz I know on 10/14 its back to hard core liquids again. So keep me posted as I will you. Hugs- : ( Starla

Thank you for the positivity! And the humor! I need it! I am getting super nervous. Hope i can be at 224 at surgery time : ) then I will be under 200 in no time : ) I can't tell you how happy that would make me : ) I am ready, did my bloodwork yesterday. Congrats on having to buy new undies : ) : ) : )

Hey! Where are you? I can't' see you...

; )

Oh yeah. 8 lbs down! Now at 230, hope i can lose more in 6 days

: )

That sounds so exciting! Wow. I cry now when I think of my boy, Josiah (18months) being that age, lol. I know i am pathetic. That is great though! I dream of a size 18 at this point!!!! And congratulations on your new phase of mushies! that is awesome. So glad you are doing well! I just did blood work this morning. So, hopefully everything is cool and band-day is this THursday! I am so ready! I am hanging in there on my diet, when i feel week and hungry I just get on here and look at before and after photos. And honestly, if my period would just end I would feel better too, lol. Sorry for too much info, lmao. Take care! TTYS

You are right : ) I did call my nurse just to touch base with her on it. Basically the same thing you just said, if it hurts don't do it. But she told me to remember to use good body mechanics while picking him up, and the first few days of not doing it would be good. How old are yours? How many do you have? : ) just curious : ) I am so excited though!!!! And so ready to get started!!! With the band I mean : ) Take care sweety!

Sorry for my freak out, lol. Thank you for your positive words! Its true! I think that you and 2flyguys, and I am sure many others are very motivational! I want so badly to grab this opportunity by the horns and full speed ahead! And I am very fearful for the loose skin thing as well. So I want to do as much walking and lifting as possible to minimize the result at goal. And yes my favorite shake is so yummy! The snacks make it so much easier to stick to it too. Let me know what else to expect for recovery. I guess I will need family and friends around a lot more than I thought.

HUGS,

Starla
