I can't drop any more weight. I just can't.........................I will be put back in the hospital for a long time. The doctor said something about undoing my gbs....I told him a BIG NO..............That will never happen. I will die a skinny person. I will never go back being over wieght.....................I have had the taste of being skinny.....I know I will get flammed over saying that but oh well.............have a good blessed day to all.

How do you feel?
I feel great! Awesome! Off all meds!
Do you have any concerns?
Yes, I want to lose another 20lbs before plastics (which I hope to have next summer/fall) and the scale has not moved since early July. I'm already maxed out on protein and fluids and I workout regularly. Although the scale has not moved, it does seem as though things are "shifting". I guess I'm just not ready for my body to be "done" and I'm thinking my body is "done" losing.

Thanks Debbie, it looks great! The lightning is wicked cool and the colors are good. I said I like blue and red so purple is fine(as long as it's dark). I put that pic up a few days ago for halloween.
Thanks again......Tim

It was mutual: YOU ARE A SMART AND STRIKING WOMAN!
I had a spectacular time reliving the "Dave" of 30 years of age on the dance floor and camping it up as Colonel Sanders at the costume party (best male costume). It was a great ego boost for someone *****treated to the social sidelines for 15 years! Channon, I danced my little ass off.
OH pics will be up soon.
The best part of the meeting was networking: Folks of diferent backgrounds,races, sexual orientation, philosopies getting tother and sharing so much. Tim, there were lots ofcorporate middle manager's there. I kept thinking how meeting these folks might improve your prospects.
The sessions were okay. DX from the men's board did a remarkable job with his.
And the people: committed and "hot."
We members of a great organization who can throw a meeting, but then they picked a great city!

Good idea to get some action going on this board again. 
Although I realize I'm late.
Here ya go:
Surgery? Lap RNY
Type? Not sure what you mean?
Date? 07/19/2005
Highest Weight? 360
Total Loss? 187 lbs
Beginning Sizes:
Pant: 30
Shirts: 4X
Shoes: 11W
Sizes Now:
Pants: 10 - 14
Shirts: L & even some M!
Shoes: 10W or some plain ole 10's.
How do you feel? I actually feel pretty darn good! I never got the huge burst of energy that most folks speak of. But I do feel loads better!
Do you have any concerns? I am concerned with keeping the weight off and battling my addictions. I am so worried I'm going to put it all back on again. I'm also concerned with getting fit. I can't seem to find the motivation to work out. I struggle with that.
Good questions!
Lisa
