I like to gather with others who had surgery at all different points and gab!!!!THEY also had the a local plastic surgeon come in and talk, but im not even thinking that way yet.....

thanks shelley! i felt soooo much better today! i just bought the leslie sansone walk away the pounds dvd-it is the power mile. i am going to start this tonight and hope to get into a good routine of doing it everyday! i can only imagine the weight will come off easier if i was exercising everyday, instead of 3 times a week!

Mary Jo! 190!!! You go GIRL! Oh, I am GREEN with envy!!! I can't wait to get to 190! I'm so happy for you!!! You know, I was thinking about you earlier. Something dawned on me. You are right on track. You know how when a person has more weight to lose, the weight comes off in larger amounts in the beginning.... then a person who has a a lot of weight to lose (not as much as the first) it comes off in large amounts in the beginning (but not as much as the first) and then the person who has less weight to lose ...doesn't lose large amounts of weight in the beginning...but still loses..... Well.....I started at 250.....and have lost 34 pounds..... You started at a lower weight and you lost 29 (or is it 31?) pounds... and I can't remember names...but there are people on the board here that started out at higher weights than both of us....and they lost more. So, see? You are KICKIN' it girl!!!!! sheeesh...don't worry about the whining....that's what we are here for...to support and hold each other up. Lord knows your gonna hear me whine! ((hugs)) Pam

YEAH!!!!! PAM HAS A FACE! i love it, great pic!!! you me and lisa, the 3 musketeers, you two have been so great for me on this board! i am now at 31 lbs, which means really i have lost 31% of my excess body weight! i love when the scale moves! thanks so much for your support, i can only get this kind of support here and you guys are the best! hugsssssssssssss

Hahaha.....you know what's funny about that picture? I was in my hotel room on my trip and bored waiting the whole 1/2 hour until we were supposed to meet in the lobby.... so I took this picture of myself and sent it to my hubby & kids! (cell phone) Then I had this idea.....why not send it to OH? So there you go. (I'm such a dork!) 31%....wow.....how do you figure that out? (math is NOT my "thing") and NO....YOU GUYS are the best!! ((hugs)) Pam
