You look mahvelous! I'm about the same height as you (though considerably older :cry_smile: ) and have the same amount to lose.

I hope my results are similar to yours - in fact, I'm gonna work my tail off (literally) to make sure that they will be! I'm not banded yet, but hopefully soon...

Thanks for posting your inspirational story!:thumbup:

Wow , you look fantastic !!! Size 12 is a great size but you look like an 8 !!

I'm happy you got the surgery so young so you can enjoy life :thumbup:

Puking , yeah, bet that's disturbing. I'm jumping back into this after chickening out 2 years ago. I puke now from over-eating at night while consuming too much soda or chocolate milk , not only or just vomiting but choking on it , being woken up from choking on it. I know I;m treading dangerous ground there. I believe it's called Aspirating.

Keep up the amazing work and CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

:D

Wow... It's so nice to read and see your success story and know it really is something we can all strive for. Thanks for sharing your journal - warts and all! I'll be banded on November 18th and my number one reason for making this decision (after so many years) is because I can feel my body breaking down and the aches and pains are so much more prevalant. But... I also want one more chance at being beautiful and SEXY!!!

      Happy Wednesday!
       
      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
