One year on July 15 and....

it's unbelievable the changes! This time last year I was 352lbs. and now I am down to 179 and in a size 9/10! I can buy clothes straight off the rack, but still have morphia issues on a daily basis. My brain is still in shock about this whole thing. I am going in for a tummy tuck that my insurance approved b/c I have a large hernia on my incision line sometime at either the end of August, beginning of September! I can't wait! My goal is to get my belly button pierced! I get so much attention that it's unbelievable in fact I have a guy who is 14 years my junior at 20 years old liking me! I have to admit that at times I feel overwhelmed by the attention and still don't get it. Sometimes I still feel fat since I have extra skin on my arms, butt, tummy and pretty much my former 56DD's have retreated to a 38C and are mostly skin, but hopefully my insurance will take care of that too....How is every body else doing? Has anyone else been feeling like this???

Wow!! You are doing great!! It will be 1 year for me tomorrow JUly 9th. I started at 369 lbs, and now I am at 210. I am wearing a size 22 because all of my weight is in my lower tummy. My top half is alot smaller and I lost all of my chins. I am looking forward to getting a tummy tuck later this year. I am so pleased with my results, but I also still have trouble eating some things, But that changes every coming week. Good luck to you!!! ANN

Thats so cute Trish, about the younger guy. There is a guy where I work who must be young enough to be my son but he sure is cute and he sure does flirt with me. Its great to have the self confidence to be able to innocently flirt back.
