How are all of the June bugs doing?

Hi Junebugs! I am doing well and hope everyone else is as well! I have dropped a couple more pounds (I think as the result of my tummy tuck swelling FINALLY going down, I'm 10 weeks post-op from that surgery). So now I am floating between 153-156 and it all REALLY depends on my carb consumption. My original goal was 150 and I think I will make it in the next 6 weeks or so. I just want to hit that number LOL. I am still carrying weight in my thighs, I would love to pursue thigh lift one day when I win the lottery, but for now I'm stuck with saggy flabby skin and saddlebags. I desperately need breast lift and augmentation, my girls are looking SAD believe me. But for now a good padded bra is hiding the damage LOL. I lost a lot of weight in my face and my features look old and drawn at age 43. So much so that I think, after reaching goal just to see what I look like at doctor's recommended weight for me (I'm 5'5"), I am probably going to try to put 5-7 lbs back on to fill my face out a bit. I am a good candidate for either a neck lift or lower face lift. I didn't think I would be so self-conscious about this but I really hate looking older than my years. My skin is looking really dry and my hair looks unhealthy as well. I need to recommit to vitamin/protein regimen as well as I've been getting lax about my water intake. The good side is that I'm now a solid size 10 and loving life, I had to RUN somewhere yesterday (catching a loose toddler in a parking lot of a grocery store!) and it didn't even make me breathe hard. Amazing, considering I could barely WALK pre-rny in June 2004. Where IS everyone? I love reading this board and catching up with other folks' progress. -BJ 300/153/150 TT/hernia repair 11/29/05

Hey guys, Its been awhile since I've logged on, but I still think of everyone! Haven't had a bad lab yet! Not getting the water & protien in that I should, but doing my best every day. I feel great...still no complications. Had full check out literally, endoscopy and colonoscopy, and MRI of my torso...all ok, no scar tissue issues, no herneas. I'm so sick of hearing all the media on bad WLS, I also know how lucky I've been and am! I'm a size 10 @ 154 lbs, loss of 170 lbs. God Bless guys! Love, Ang Updated profile, new pic soon!
