Thanks you guys!! I am really emotional. I came to this site seeking help with lapband issues and I received so much more. I finally felt acceptance through each and every post. I mean everybody has some issue that they have to deal with. Some of us only have the weight issues but there are others of us that have so many other things that are hidden behind the weight issue. I realize that my weight was only the tip of the iceberg. Now I have tackled the next self acceptance. Guess what when I took those pictures that very day I met a great man! He told me I was and angel, lol. I mean I met the man I will probably marry! He and I have alot in common and he said that he already loves me cause it hit him hard. LOL This stuff only happens in the movies and only to Meg Ryan and Julia Roberts. He asked did I believe in love at first sight and I said No, his response while he was looking directly into my eyes was, well maybe because you don't see what I see because I see love when I look at you. He is so sweet! Man things are looking up.

Well I think he is the one! I have talked to him everyday since we met on last thursday! I feel all giddy inside when he talks to me. I am from the south but he has this southern drawl and it is sexy!!!! He calls me sugah all the time and I used to think that stuff was sappy but when he says it I grin like a chessy cat! LOL I really think I love him! I have never felt this way before! Man!!!

Okay Paula I will. I have had my share of them believe me. This is so totally different but I have my guard up. You are so sweet for caring. I went to the grocery store today and got hit on again! I think because I have finally accepted myself I have a completely different attitude and evidently it is attracting men. Oh yeah and I had a woman hit on me the other day, that was weird but she was very nice. OH well thanks to you guys! Man ya'll rock!

Okay! My hair dresser is my best friend and I have hair extensions! I use a spray that keeps the wavy look and it has extra shine booster in it. My hair is short in the back and layered all over so we incorperated the wavy locks in. My hair color is brown like a medium brown. It is not dyed. When I was diagnosed with Lupus in 95 all of my hair fell out because of medicine. It grew back wavy and a medium to light brown go figure and it never changed.

      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... :(
