what belly?? u look fantastic. i wouldnt ever worry about a thing. u r sexy .. you need to always know that . i hope my bely looks like that in a cute lil shirt one day .

 Sending lots of best wishes and encouragement out to you.  It's the best decision I've ever made in my life.  I look and feel so much better than I have in years.  I'm wearing a size 8 and I went I went into surgery a size 22.  I'm down 112 lbs with only 15 to go.

All the best to you.  Dr. Genaw is awesome!  Get ready for a brand new life!!!!!  Yeah!

 Hi Karen,
Thank you so much for your encouraging words.  I am hanging in there and like you, I'm terrified of ever gaining back the lost weight.  Thankfully, I'm not gaining any weight, just floating around within 2 lbs over the past several months.  

Congrats to you for reaching your goal and beyond.  Keep up the great work!

Hi, I am having the same problem. I dont remember anything without writing it down. I cant remember anything from the surgery either (ie being rolled in to surgery, counting down)

Wow, I really must check on here more often!  
I am loving life! 
Shopping and going to the gym fill my life now. I need to find a job or something to keep up with my spending habits!
I am 5'9 and wearind size 8/10 bottoms and  M tops
Happy with my progress, happy with myself!
My mother in law gave me a picture yesterday. It was me back in August '08. I really must fix my scanner and scan the picture. I could not believe what I used to look like. It was at a different angle than any picture I had seen of me pre-op. My butt and legs look so incredibly large. I had no clue I had got to that point. I showed it to my husband and his jaw dropped and he said  "NO WAY, that's NOT you!!!"
