Topic: RE: I have an ulcer.
What does it feel like. Sometimes after I eat, I start feeling this terrible pain like a mouse crawling down my tummy right by my pouch. I've been thinking maybe I should go see my doc. What do you think?
Topic: RE: I am down 100 pounds!
Great job...I am down 142 lbs. from my heaviest weight, 135 from surgery date. I cannot believe it. WOW. Wish I could think about some PS, but financially its not going to happen so I'll just get used to looking like a hound dog - all loose skin and all. Looking pretty good with clothes on though (I can actually say that and mean it now...that is an accomplishment for me).

Way to go. What a good feeling. I am down 127 pounds with 20 more to go with what Dr. wants. But to tell the truth I am very happy were I am right now and then wait to do tummy tuck. Thanks for sharing your progress.

Topic: RE: Just sharing a nice story...
Thanks Sharyn that is why I come to this site, I know everybody here has been through the same thing. Don't get me wrong I have a great support system at home, but its not the same as talking to people who have been there. My family is totally behind me (Well except for the SIL) and as for talking to my brother, well we are lucky to get a grunt out of him. When I am feeling bad I come here and read the post and feel better by the time I log off. I am so greatful for all the people here. I know I don't post as often as I should but just reading sometimes helps out tremendously.
Topic: Ladies swimsuits
Just wanted to drop in and give you all an update. I did find a really cute Land's End swimsuit at Sears. Thanks for the tip! They had a lot of cute ones. I actually fit into a (get this) size 8 bottom!!! Wowzer!! That's a first for me - I ended up getting the size 10 because the skirt was about 1-1/2 inch longer and with these flabby thighs - I really needed the 1-1/2 inches! The top was racing back style which was much more flattering than the halter style (had a little extra fabric to hide those skin rolls!.
Anyway, if anyone is looking, go to Sears!
