Hi. I had my surgery on July 9th and weighed 240 lbs. This morning I weighed in at 143 lbs. Only 3 pounds away from my goal, unbelievable.

Day of surgery: 7/30 255 Today: 169.0 Loss since surgery: 86 pounds 24 pounds to go to my personal goal

You are so funny! It is so true though! Everyone loves my hair too! I am just now getting the "WOW you look amazing, you have lost weight haven't you?" ONLY 120 POUNDS!! I am tall so I guess it took alot for people to notice. LOL! Everyone is doing so good! Keep up the good work! Malissa

Hello all you July 07 Losers! Today is my 7 month surgi-versary. I started a new job last month that doesn't have access to a scale like my old one did, but at last check I'm down 112 in these last 7 months. WOW ... that's more than my little gramma weighs! I've started a weekly (i know i need more) work out on Saturday mornings at this studio in Hollywood. Oh man, it's an arse kicker. The trainer will take on my sister and i for $400 a month. UGH... just can't swing that. But maybe he can come down? I've been dating the world's most amazing man since Thanksgiving and we couldn't be happier. I have known him since 96, but we lost touch in late 99 and hadn't connected until Turkey Day. Since we were both single, had a crush on each other back in the day, and were both interested in a long term, steady, stable relationship with someone, we thought .. let's do this. It's been wonderful. I'm falling so in love with him. He's everything I dreamed of and more. And lucky me, he's told me the same. Life is fan-freakin'-tastic!!! Just wanted to see how my other 9ers were doing. Any updates!?!?

Thanks!
