Congratulations to you, half-century girl!!!! That's extraordinary! Congratulations to everyone! I'm so proud of us!!!!

Carrie The Awesome: Question; you said you lost 8 lbs. in 5 days. Did you do anything different? Or have you always lost big like that. I have been plugging along with averaging 3 lbs. a week, then BOOM this week I lost 5.2 lbs. which puts me down 48.2 lbs. Last week I felt I had over indulged in popcorn (went to see Fantastic Four) and my 3-year old granddaughter kept feeding me the popcorn for the next day. I was enjoying the interaction with her (and the popcorn, too) but was surprised to see I was down so much. So, I am curious if this is just our time to lose big or was it extra exercise, extra water??????????? It would be nice to think it was the popcorn. Paula

Hi Paula 2 answer your question yes I am doing more laps in the pool & longer @ water aerobics. I started @ 30 minutes now I am up to 1 hour & 15 minutes. But only 2-3 times a week. I have WAY more energy!!!!! I love to walk also. But Yep I was shocked! How its melting off! I went to my Dr. yesterday for my 2 months post op they said if your smilin now wait till ur 6 months out. I said why? all she said was I am not tellin you'll see yourself!!!!! So us MAY Babies all get alot to look forward to before the winter holidays!!!!!!! XOXOX TO ALLL
