My surgery date is September 30th in Ypsilanti, MI.

who else is in september? what are your thoughts? are you excited??!!! Nervous?

I love all the picture post! I just wish I could. I'm just over 40lbs lost since surgery & just over 50 since post op. I hate that I look in the mirror & still see a 300lbs woman. I can tell I'm losing but my stomach area is still holding onto the crap/fat... It'll leave just not as fast as I would like. Yay to almost 50 lbs since surgery!!! Nothing else I have done has ever done this...

I'm almost 50 down and my feet, legs, boobs are all shrinking. Lol. My tummy is holding in for dear life. You think it has a mind of its own. Lol. I have lost one size in my waist, but would love for the chub to melt away! Hang in there. I keep visualizing it disappearing. :-)

Oh gosh, yes! That tummy will not give in!

My Fitness Pal keeps telling me I'm not eating enough calories. I'm wondering if that is the reasoning for the slow weight loss. I was able to get my 1200 calories in and the next day I lost a lb. lol. Crazy that I struggle to get in what I could throw down in one meal. I'm happy that I cannot eat as much and I don't have a choice. I needed this surgery to help me. My surgeon told me my stomach was huge. No wonder I could eat a 1/2 of pizza. Lol
