New Pictures on Profile

Ok, I'm about 2 1/2 weeks late for my 7 month post-op pictures, but with the Hurricane situation last month, I just haven't gotten around to posting. If your interested in seeing them, they are at the bottom of my profile. Hugs, Dana Lap RNY 2-21-05 260/239/136/130

Ah Dana, you are just a little peanut of a thing aren't you? I'm probably not quite as short, but also very petite boned. I still have so far to go....I didn't lose any weight before surgery nor was it required...I wish I would have done this years ago... You look absoluetely wonderful! Pat

Thanks sweetie. Pat, you know if someone would have told me I was sm/med boned pre-op I would have laughed at them, heck I always thought I was "Big Boned" . I'm amazing how small my wrist, hands, and ankles are. I'm 5'1" (almost but that's what we used at the docs), wish I was taller. I to wish I'd have done this surgery 4 years ago when I first looked into it, I wasn't ready then though. I also want to thank you for the menu, I'm going shopping tomorrow to get the stuff I need, the recipes sound yummy. You'll never know how much I appreciate it. I'll probably improvise this week, because of time constraints but I'll be sure to cook next weekend for the entire week. Hugs, Dana

i am so impressed, amazed, stunned, ... dana, you're a beautiful person, inside and out. i read through some of your profile and saw your latest pics. your journey has been a wondrous thing for you. i'm so glad you shared it with all of us hope you have a great week. take care dorthe

(((Dorthe))), thanks sweetie for all the support and encouragement you offer all of us on this board. You are most definitely a major support factor for all of us. You are doing great yourself, you must be proud. I really feel fortunate to have had WLS and to be where I am today, never in a million years would I have expected this wonderful gift to be so amazing. I'm lovin life now. Best wishes, Dana

you look great dana. you are a little bitty ole thing!! you wish you were taller and i wish i was shorter. i think i'm the milkman's baby because i come from a family of short people. i stick out like a sore thumb! the women in my family are about 5' and the men are about the same height as me 5'8". it has it's advantages with the weight thing though. great job on the weight loss and you look fantastic!!

you look FANTASTIC!!!!! Lisa 371/341/211/140

Thanks Lisa, you are almost to Onderland, keep up the wonderful progress you are doing. I'll be waiting for that special post to Onderland. Hugs, Dana

Hey Stef, thanks. Girl I hear you we'll never be satisfied, I don't want to be too tall, one of my sister's is 5'10" and she has trouble finding pants long enough, I am on the other end, too long. I think being about 5'6" would be an ideal height, then I'm find something else I wanted different . My husband always tells me "I'll never be satisfied, with myself" ummm, starting to think it's true . Best wishes on your continued journey. Hugs, Dana

You look great keep up the great work....Dawn
