50lbs BITES THE DUST!!!

HELLO everyone!!!

I started out my journey on Oct 1, 2010 and to date I have lost 50lbs!!! Its been just over 3 months since surgery and I have never had any complications at all :) I never had any nausea after eating or heart burn! I feel so blessed to have made this decision to get my life back :) Im getting closer and closer to my goal weight that I can taste it HAHAH... I just recently started the P90X workout videos in order to increase my physical fitness as well as tighten all of those loosey goosey areas :D Im so Happy because I am only 22 and by the time i Celebrate my 23rd birthday in June I know I will be at my goal and that makes me so excited! For anyone who is on the fence about doing the surgery... all I can say is Im glad I didnt wait until I was an unhappy obese 45 yr old mother of 3... bringing down my family because of my insecurities!! Now I know that when I do start my family... i will be properly equipped to be a healthy mother and wife

All the best to you ALL!!

Jackie

LONG LIVE THE SLEEVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whooooot!!! Congratulations young woman!!!!! You are right to have done this so young - you are on the right track. I think you're being young is helping you to lose as fast as you are!! Good for you, as I'm 37 and I've been so flux with my weight I find it harder and harder every time. It's ok though, this is going to be the LAST time -- FOR ALL OF US!!!

I'm super happy for you - and SUPER CONGRATS on getting your workout on... that P90X looks brutal!! Can't wait to try it out myself... :D

Congrats Jackie! You are rocking that sleeve!!!!

And yes, having youth on your side is a GOOD thing...enjoy it! I'm so happy for you!!

Amazing job~congrats!!!!!

Hey Jackie! Congrats that is soooo awesome!

I'm 23 and just submitted my chart for approval from my insurance company! I'm really hoping to be the new me by my 24th!

I can only hope I'm as successful as you have been with your weight loss! :D
