Hi Rebecca, thats awesome losing 2 lbs. I am maintaing at.....drum roll please 136, for the past couple days any ways. LOL. I seem to jump from 136-140 and back down again. When I got to 154, I think it was, that gave me a NORMAL bmi, probably for the first time in my life, so being at this weight is a real bonus for me. It still amazes me at times. Sometimes I will walk by a window and NOT believe its really me. My sons gf gave me some designer jeans size 5/6 and they actually fit. How do you think that made me feel? LOL I had to give away all my size 8s and was wearing 7s but she brought me 2 pairs of 5s and 2 pairs of 5/6s and every pair fit, quite a difference from my 26/28s I was wearing prior to surgery. Im sure you will make your xmas goal. Have and great week.

Well, it's been forever since I've been on this site. I'm glad to know everyone is doing well. I have far exceeded my surgeon and my personal expectations. Beginning Weight: 237 Current Weight: 127 Down from a size 18/20 to size 4! Truly an amazing transformation! I now have trouble finding clothes "off the rack" because they are too big! Life is good. I will try to post pictures soon!

Hi Rebecca, I am so glad you posted this. I come here everyday to check up on everyone, although I have mostly been in the shadows here, I have gotten so much from this board. I would love to see everyone come back once in a while and post. I hope your back gets better soon, I bet its from not being used to standing for such long periods of time. You have done fantastic. WE have all done so wonderful here. I dont have any new goals, just trying to maintain. I weigh 139 today and fluctuate from 136-139 and I am 5 ft 6 inches so its a great weight for me. Have a wonderful week everyone

Hi all, yes this is the time of year where there are too many temptations in the food department. We all need to encourage each other to stay on the straight and narrow. Rebbeca I applaud you for resisting all that halloween candy, I wish I could say the same. I would like to lose about 10 more pounds to get to a normal BMI. These last few pounds are sure slow coming off. Oh well, never give up I say. I do check our board each day and am glad to see others wanting to keep in touch. I will check in. Rebecca standing all day long on a job is tough, I hope with a good pair of shoes things improve for your back. Take care lets talk soon Sher
