I woke up this morning and had a face!!! LOL

Thanks to Rene I have a face. Its not the best of pictures but will have to work for now. I have been stuck at 164 for the past 2 weeks and then it goes up to 166 and then drops again. I am getting so upset. I just want to hear the words just overweight! I am only one pound away from hearing that. I just can't seem to get there. I have been eating right and started exercising. I have been doing the gazelle for 30 mins. This is only my first week tho. I know I am builing muscle. Oh well I have lost a total of 66 pounds and I am pretty proud of that. I seem to lose inches faster then I am pounds. I guess it all adds up in the end. Well thanks for listening all and keep up the great work. Danelle M King

Hang in there, Danelle! By the way, the pic looks AWESOME! Keep up the great work! You'll be overweight in no time! Jeff

Thanks Jeff, You are a sweetie. I have looked at your profile several times. You look awsome. Keep up the great work and thanks for spending a little of your time to give me feed back. You really are a sweetheart! Danelle

Danelle, you look FANTASTIC!! I checked out your profile and what a difference - you look 10 years younger and you seem to be half of what you started out!! One pound to go until you're overweight - who else but us WLS people would be thrilled at the thought of being overweight!! You're doing great, Danelle - best wishes for continued success!! Hugs, Nancy -95

Hey Danelle, You look fantastic! Good for you! Someone said you look younger and their right - you look so much younger and healthier now. I checked your profile out and we have the same doctor - isn't he great?! I love that man and his staff. Dr. V assisted on my surgery (he was training with Dr. Z then) and I really like him too. I really liked the hospital too. My mom had the surgery at St. Luke's in December (my surgery inspired her) and didn't care for the staff but I had a terrific experience. I'll be in Phoenix at the end of the month for a follow-up with Dr. Zahn. Take care, Cindy

I want to thank you guys for the kind words. I really needed that today. You guys are great and when I get down I always feel better posting to you. Thanks again and yes Dr Zahn is great. I love him to death. He is a sweetie always so happy to see us and give us a big hug. The Hospital wasn't to bad for me. I really like Nichole she is the best. Well thank again for your kind words and encouragement. Keep up the good work and keep losing. Danelle King

Danelle -- You're doing great! You're probably building muscle from the exercise, so it's slowing down your weight -- but you're losing inches!! I know my weight loss has slowed since hitting 6 months out. I looked at your profile and you look terrific!...and I love the pug puppies! So cute! Gail D. 252/169/140

Gail, Thank you so much for the encouragement. I just get so down when the scale doesn't move after a couple of weeks. I know in my heart that it has to move again it has no choice. My Pugs are great. They are always good for a laugh or too! You are also doing great. Keep up the great work and thanks again. It always seems to help me hang in there when people care. Good luck on the rest of your journey and congrats on your succes!!! Danelle
