Hey All~

Last night my girlfriend dragged me outta the house and we went to see a local band play and a venue in Poughkeepsie. The boys in the band work at the Haunted House that Im involved in (girlfriend works there too) and we always go to their shows to support them. Anyway.......We buy their cd's and stuff......so they get a little extra $$ from the show.......Last night we bought tee shirts with their logo on it. I typially buy tee's size 2X or sometimes 3X....Last night, the tee that I bought was a LARGE... There were no numbers or extra X's before or after the size....JUST THE LETTER "L"~~~~ I thought it was a bit tight, but my girlfriend said it looked good~ Guess I am just use to swimming in my clothes or covering totally up with clothes....that when I get in the right size I freek out thinking its too small. I am beyond PROUD!!

(FYI If you wanna check out the boys band, see their website http://www.juniperrock.com/ or on MySpace at http://www.myspace.com/juniper

their website is under construction so some stuff may not be up and running yet..you can actually hear their music at the myspace addy, they are Alternative Rock...)

~TALK TO YOU LATER FRIENDS~

Did you feel sort of etherial and looking for a reality check? I think thats a great experience. I dont know if I really had a NSV but it was something I noticed, and liked, This morning when our pastor asked us to bow our heads for prayer, my chin actyally reached my chest instead of pushing into my poochy neck! It was wierd yet exciting!

Good for you, especialy while out! That had to put a smile on your face or a tear in your eye.

I had the same kind nsv when we got a t-shirt in at work and they gave it to me. I thought I would give it to my son. When I got home I opened it and tried it on and it fit and was also a large. I cried.

I just went through my closet and had to remove all the 3x shirts... way too big! Also got rid of all the 56 and 52 waist pants, I'm now in 48-50's!

Unfortunately, that was most of my wardrobe.

Oh well, nudity is cool.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
