6 months post op!!

I am 180-182 now, down just over 80# at 6 months. Put on a pair of my "Skinny" pants, size 16, and although they are tight, I am wearing them. I had a WONDERFUL shopping experience the other day. I actually went to Old Navy and bought clothes for MYSELF! I was SO thrilled that I couldn't stop telling people that I actually fit into their clothes. Everyone was probably thinking that I was a complete freak, but I could care less. Can't wait to be in the century club. I hope to hit that goal just after the new year. What a new year it will be! Have been thinking a lot about having another baby and hope we can start trying in the spring. I hope to be about 140 when we start trying. If I continue to lose 10# each month it might be sooner! I would like to see myself at 130, but think it will be pretty drastic. People have already mentioned that they thought I looked sick when I got married and I weighed 150 then. I wonder what they will think if I get below that!?! How is everyone else doing? Can you believe it has been 6 months?!?! =) Jeanette Lap RNY 5-9-03 264/181/140??

Time really does fly, doesn't it?It seemed at first like the surgery would NEVER happen! And then it seemed like it took a long time to HEAL. And now here it is already (nearly, for me) 6 months out. I am very pleased that I did this. I have about 31 pounds more to go ... to get to my Doctor's goal weight for me. He thinks 148 (I'm 5'10"). I was thinking more like 160, but will see what happens! Keep up the good work Jeanette!
