Hi all,

I had to update my pic so I could show ya'll. I have cheekbones again!!!!!

Surgery was on the 25th and I lost 12 pounds the first week, so that makes 16 total with pre-op measly 4 pounds.

I can only see it in my face as yet and my hands since my wedding ring is really loose now. (angling for mo betta sparklies soon)

Now you know why I'm smiling so big in my pic! lol

xoxox:bounce:

Congratulations on the bones and YES more *BLING* cause sizing it simply won't do!! Feels great doesn't it?

I found my jaw bone!

Wow!!! What a huge difference. You're doing fabulous, girlie!

Yes, I agree sizing my wedding band just WON'T do at all. hehehe

Thanks so much. When I see the pictures I know there is a difference. I wish the scale would show it more though. Can't wait for my stomach to really go down!! But putting on makeup is such a joy. There is less

"surface area" to cover. And isn't it great turning to the side and seeing cheek bones???? Love it.

My gold bracelet is sliding...gee, guess I'll need to replace that too!

It is great to put makeup on now and not find myself being all depressed and wondering why I'm bothering. It's nice being able to wear all my jewelry thats been shut up for years as too tight. I can't wait til I can buy a regular old ankle bracelet and actually have a pretty slender ankle to put it on. Also to go get a full pedicure and actually admire my feet or not be worrying if the person thinks it's gross having to work on my feet and massage my tree trunk of a leg.

It goes on and on doesn't it? Life is def getting better...so much to look forward to.

You go girl! Whenever her husband would ask what to get her for a gift, my friend Jane would say "Fine jewelry is always appropriate." Woohoo!

Congrats on the bones! You look beautiful!

Awww thanks so much. That gave me a warm fuzzy.

Frog,that truly made me crack up. I'll have to remember that.

I now have check bones also. Everyone keeps talking about how thin my face has gotten. Its starting to get on my nerves because I want it to be noticeable in my body not just my face.

im so excited for all of you!!!

im down 15 pds as of yesterday!!!! and i can see it in my face also..but i always had some cheek bones going on..lol maybe its just fat lol... i will post pics soon!!!

Congrats, ya'll! I know what you mean, I can't wait til it stats showing in the body too. I can hook my bra easier but thats about it. lol

Voodoo....HAHAHAHA!!! You ain't seen NOTHING yet kiddo! I remember when I hit my 5 pound mark I was SOOOOO happy! When I hit ONEDERLAND I cried too. It just gets better and better. People ask me how much I have lost so far and I say...oh...uh....38 pounds.... and it even baffles ME! I am seeing digits on my scale I haven't laid eyes on in over 20 years!!!!

I can so relate to that, Kacee. I mean I still weight as much right now as I did when I was 6 months pregs with my son but at least its going down!

Great NSV. Keep up the good work.
