5 Months Post Op and new pics posted!

We had a great time this weekend. I was able to camp without so much discomfort. It was so nice. And I was able to take my daughter horseback riding!!! So I have updated my profile with a few pics. I have not stictched the new ones together yet but you can see them at least. Donna

Oh but what I discovered over the past few days.....my hair is falling out .....by the bunches!!!! I thought I was going to escape this problem......

Donna, You look absolutely fabulous, Congratulations! How is your protein intake? Maybe you need to up it to help with the hair loss. Hugs, Sue

Thanks Sue! Actually I average 70 gms if not 80 a day .....I watch it VERY closely after all the stalls I was having. Donna

Hi Donna, The new pics are great. It looks like you had a great time camping. I read that you were setting a goal of dropping 100 pounds by the holidays. I know you can do it. You have to drop 11 pounds a month to be there by the end of the year. You can do it by staying focused...go for it. Well....okay, if you don't quite make it, there is always President's Day...or St. Valentine's Day...you will make it by the holidays either way. Go ahead..try for the end of the year though. I'll be checking in on you...okay? John

Thanks John and LOL about the OTHER holidays. I am not sure if I will quite make it but I am going to sure try. Of course if I go by my highest weight I only have 15 more to go !!! I know that I need to move more to get things going a bit faster again. I have been averaging 15 pounds a month so I should perhaps make it. Of course that would be nice if it was by my 6 month appt but not realistic since that is less than a month away. Slow and Steady.......LOL! Donna

You are doing so great Donna! Congrats on the horseback ride! Even shrinking I wouldn't do it. LOL Even my kitten frightens me. lol Your pics look amazing and you should be soooooooooo proud of yourself! * Cyndi *

Thanks Cyndi! though since they still ahd to push my bottom up it will be a while before I would go back LOL!
