Hey Feb. Losers...what have you been up to
Just thought I would check in to see how everyone is doing. Where are you at with your weight loss at 7 months post-op? My weight loss has been strange....4 weeks of nothing followed by 4 pounds gone overnight. This has been a steady thing for the past two months. I am down 70 pounds and have about 30 more to go. I went from a size 22/24 to a size 12 so I am really happy. I decided that I needed to do something incredible to celebrate being under 200 pounds...something I couldn't do UNLESS I was that weight. So this last weekend I went with my girlfriend and we did something crazy.....we went skydiving. I am now thinking that for every month I lose weight I am going to go again and if I get to goal I will sign up to be certified to go solo. If you are interested in seeing the video here it is

What crazy business have you done to reward yourself?

Have fun on your cruise. We went to the caribbean just before I had surgery and had a great time but I fear that cruises might not be on my agenda anymore.....just too many temptations. It is great that you are able to do it,though, and make good choices.
I love the new picture of you skydiving. I don't think I could ever do that. Not without wearing a depend...lol. Zip-lining will be enough for me, since I have a terrible fear of heights. I figure if my 8 and 11 yo neice and nephew can do it, I surely can too. Due to weight restrictions, previously this was something that I wouldn't have been able to do, but now at my current weight, I easily meet their weight requirements and will weigh even less by the time I get there.
Don't you just feel great? I love shopping again now that I can wear "normal" sizes. It opens up so many more options and I swear, it seems the clothes are cuter and less expensive than the plus sizes were.
Take care everyone and keep posting!

But I understand about your being stuck on and off...I have been stuck for the last week and a half as well. I was going to see what you guys are eating and if anyone had any ideas for getting the ball rolling again.
