Hi all, I dont post here often but I do lurk every day and I just wanted to say that I am 8 months post-op and down 106 pounds and I have never felt happier!! I hope everyone is feeling good and having a happy journey!! Love, Sue 3/30/04 300/194/150

Congrats Sue... way to use that tool to your advantage!!! Keep up the great work!! Ms P

You look marvelous! I am 194 as of today as well. Keep up the good work! Maureen

As we are all reaching our 8th and 9 month marks have you calcuated how much your average weight loss per month has been? Mine is almost 13 lbs per month. When have you ever done that? Isn't it great and to know that as long as you use this tool correctly it will not be gained back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My life is beginning to be more of a routine now. It is seldom that I run into someone new that has not seen me lately. But when I do, I am wondering why they are acting so funny and looking at me like they are as it is now just a regular part of my life. I still have the mind to contend with as far as seeing myself fat and not picking out the right size clothes. I have to pay attn to the size on the label, not the look. Going to yard sales to find clothes has been an adventure that I am beginning to pull family in with me. (I usually find clothes for someone else too and go back with them.)

Sue, You look beautiful! Nice to hear from you Congratulations on your awesome loss! It will be 9 months for me in 2 days It sure did go by fast! I can't believe its been that long already! I wish you the best! Elizabeth M

Wow Sue - you look incredible! Keep up the great work!!! Dina

Hey Sue, I had surgery the day before you and am down 94lbs. You are doing fantastic, and your picture show how happy you are. Keep up the good work. Leslie

Thanks to all of you guys! I love coming here and reading especially on the March board. The support and info is wonderful! Thanks for all your kind words. I also need to get a new pic up as the one here is a couple of months old. Hair is much thinner now but I will take the hair loss over the weight any day!! Have a great night!
