Hey people~ I really need to get my hiney back on this board. I miss you guys. I updated my profile with 3 pictures and some "venting" of my thoughts. As of yesterday I have lost a total of 149.5 pounds and I weigh 171.5. (well, 170.5 today, but yesterday was my surgiversary) My docs goal was 180 which I have surpassed quite some time ago. I have had a normal BMI for a few weeks too. I still have a hard time comprehending that I am "normal". Even my close up pic...I sat and looked at it for over an hour in denial that it was actually me....you can ask Jaci!! I kept telling her there is NO WAY I am that girl in the picture...she is thin and pretty...that can't be ME!!! LOL Oh...Be sure to click on the "hot or not" link next to my pics and rank me!!! **muah** Dawn

LOL...I did have Mr. Faith Hill on there for a whole day...lol. I just love that song so much and I kept going back and forth because of the long behind intro. I opted to put it on there though. **muah**

Karla~ Ya know, it's not really as bad as I make it out to be..in reality I have high and low days. The thing is, I feel that it is sort of my obligation to post these feelings though so that preop patients might see that sometimes it's not all sunshine and flowers. Just like people are quick to correct those that call WLS the "easy way out"; they ought to correct those who think it is a "fix all" as well. Thanks for your words of encouragement. Dawn
