HEY JULY BABES

Hey - I never even knew this board existed until today! Well, I'm 7/27, down 127 lbs. 6 lbs below my surgeon's goal and 4 lbs from my goal. Size 8 in pants - still a L in tops though - the big boobs and arms are still on the big side I feel fantastic!

Skinny inside- We drink the same Starbucks order and we have the same issue- I am down about 101-4 pounds (depends on the day) Size 8 bottom and L tops (damn boobs and arms)! IWelcome to the board! Andrea

Hi there - just discovered this board today (I know, I don't get out much). But I had surgery 7/27 and I'm down 127 lbs. 6 lbs below my surgeon's goal and 4 lbs to go till I hit my goal. My pants are a SIZE 8, which I can't even believe! I never expected single digits! Heck - I'm still getting used to saying my weight starting with a "1" !!

Glad to have you join us. Isn't it exciting as we approach our one year anniversaries? Some of the folks here are a bit crazy, some a a bit smart, some a bit... well everything. It is a fun group with some personality. Hope to hear more from you. -Pam

My anniversary is July 5th. I have lost 148 lbs as of today. I have been here for about 5 weeks now (up and down a couple pounds each week). 190 was my overall goal, but now I am looking to get down to 180 lbs. Therefore, my 100% loss has moved to 94% loss. I am so excited about where I have come. I am feeling 100% better adn have done things that I have not done in YEARS!!!. It is awesome. I can't wait 'til my 1 yr appt. with my surgeon and show off how I have done and thank him for his help in getting me where I am. Went shopping today and was very surprised. I am down from size 50 pants to 34's (or medium shorts - which I bought today) and 3XL shirts to Large. Feels awesome to wear these clothes and getting rid of my old clothes (except for a pair of pants that I am keeping as a reminder of where I was). This journey has changed my life and I it has been the best move I have ever made. Even though I don't post a lot, I thank you all for your support.

Mine's July 6! Down 106 pounds and ready to celebrate. My wife and son are scheduled to whitewater raft on the Rio Grande south of Taos that day. My back has been great lately. I may go with them. The last I rafted was 19 years ago. What an option to consider. Dave

Hi! What a great and positive post! My surgiversary is 29 July. I started this journey at 265.5 and am now at 151. My goal was to reach 155, so I have surpassed my goal and feel great. I am currently waiting to hear whether my abdominoplasty has been approved. I started out this journey in tight 28s/3X and now where mostly size 9 bottoms...unless they are juniors and that is a 13 or 12, and my shirts are larges, but after my TT I will be wearing a medium. Take care. I love you all!! You have all been a great support to me. Nickie

I too am July 18th have lost 181 and have 37 to go to goal.
