hello havent posted in awhile just wondering how everyone is doing? As for me I am doing great, loving life and not regretting the surgery at all. I started this at 271 and now I am 203, I got into a 14 stretch jean yesterday and everything in my closet is falling off me. I look like a clown but I feel great!!! Hope everyone else is doing great also. Jackie

Hi Jackie- Doing good here too. Down 55lbs from 291 to 236. I am now wearing an 18W-20W in new clothes. I have gotten rid of all my 26W-28W clothes but still am wearing some of the 22W-24W or I would be going naked for lack of clothes. I am not sure if I am just more sensitive now or what but I cannot stand wearing baggy clothes. They seem so uncomfortable and I can't stand hitching my pants up all day. Much different than the days of wearing baggy clothes to cover up myself. I also learned the difference between Womans clothing and Misses. I bought a 16W bathing suit and it fit fine. So I went back and bought another 16 and it was too small. So I finally figured out that it was a Misses and therefore smaller. Lesson learned. Michelle in SoCal

Doing good. Lost about 65 pounds - tomorrow is my 3-month checkup so I'll get the official weight then. Feel great. Actually enjoy exercise (did "I" say that?). Need to remember to take photos.

Hi Jackie, I don't regret surgery for a minute, I feel blessed for the positive changes I have seen in my health. On a minor downside, I am living with a lot of irritability at the moment. I started at 291 and I am now at 199. I was on a 4 year wait list for surgery, so kept a lot of my size 20 clothes. They are baggy now, so I did break down and go by a new pair of pants for work, and a couple of t-shirts. I wear a lot of skirts and dresses to work lately. I think (hope) that the bagginess is less noticeable. Lori
