Hi! I had surgery January 29th, 2004. I am doing great. I am below goal. I weighed 131 this morning, my original goal was 145, then I changed it to 135 and now I would like to try to see if I can make it to 129, just for the heck of it. We just got home from a week long trip to San Diego (beautiful city) and I just KNEW I had probably gained some weight because we ate at some wonderful places and it seemed like we were eating all the time. But, I came home weighing exactly the same. Amazing! Before WLS I could have expected to gain a good 10 pounds. I am so happy to have had WLS. It has sooo changed my life for the better. The best thing is that I finally just to feel like me, like this is how I am supposed to look and feel, does that make sense to anyone else? The other me was a skinny person in a fat person's body, screaming to be let out. And to wear normal sized clothing right off the rack. I hated having to shop in the Plus size departments. We can wear MUCH cuter and stylish clothes now...how cool is that. BTW, I am in a size 4 jeans and pants and small top. I was a size 20/22 before. It was never my goal to be a size 4, in fact I was hoping to be a size 10. I had tons of 10's from skinny days of yore. Would love to hear from some of you and find out your results... Suzie in Texas

You are doing great! I am below goal as well. I would do the surgery again in a heartbeat. Glad that you are doing so well! Good luck on your goal!
