Yep some non surgery victories :-D Friday I went to the movies with a friend and was able to put both arm rest down and still have plenty or room in my chair :-) Now my niece can hug me and wrap her arms all the way around me :-) oooo... Was able to wear a REALY cute pair or wedges all day :-D Okay I wanna hear some of y'all's now :-D

Got a new piercing to commemorate my 55lbs of weight lost!

Ooo I had my helix done. And an industrial, double conch, single conch, lobes, tongue, and eyebrow. Eyebrow came out when I was probably 21. The rest I actually took out for surgery and never put them back in. I'm also looking into having a few tattoos removed (they're really not well done at all). I want to completely transform myself from my previous self. Congrats on your piercing tho!!

Did it hurt?! Looks pretty sweet!

Hurts more now than it did when they did it!

Had to keep it classy since I'm a medical professional! I've had all sorts of piercings and have taken most of them out because of work. At least this one can be inconspicuous if I want!

I finally felt confident enough to get back on stage for an audition and I got a part!!!!

That is truly inspirational

Preop weight 389 current weight 327 that's 62 lbs lost since RNY 6/11/13

New NSV.. Daughter has been in the airforce for 6 months. This weekend I drove down to spend time with her. We went shopping at the outlet mall. Same size shopping in the same stores. First for us ever and had a ball!!

Me too! And my girls have lost weight too - my D-cup has a little room in it. Shopping today! :-)

I hear ya! First my band size dropped, now the volume is shrinking! On the plus side, that probably means I'll fit into a size medium top!

I can fit in the bath tub! My arms use to fall asleep if I laid down... Now there's all this room to relax ... Me and bubbles!

I'll have to try that. I don't think I've taken a sitdown bath in 20 years!

Wow! You are my inspiration Kristy! We had the same starting weight and I only hope I can get down to where you are!

Congrats!

Climbed 4 flights of stairs in the parking ramp and didn't even get winded. Unbelievable!

I'm actually looking forward to having less cleavage. Maybe I'll get a little more eye contact. Lol

@Kristy that's wonderful and u look amazing! Also, you have a beautiful daughter and she looks just like her beautiful mother!! The closest I can get is to go to the outlet malls with my 15 year old son!!! He is 5'10" tall and weighs 130lbs. He's y'all and slim with an athletic build... He loves to shop just like a girl and really likes to look good!!!

That's the age. Does he practically BATHE in Axe body spray? Lol

He used to... So I took it away only because it causes me to get migraines.... Any heavy smells do! I kept telling him how to properly wear cologne and finally the last few months it sank in! He loves to look at himself in the mirror and match his shoes to his outfits... I think he has more shoes than everyone in the house put together... And his clothes MUST be name brand... If I didn't know any better I would think I was raising a teenage girl! He's also on the football team(second year) and he thinks he's all that ! But I love him to death ; )

He's the one with the red hair, the blonde is his little brother.. Totally different personalities!!!

He's the one with no number on his jersey
