That is SOOOO. Awesome... but I feel ya on the fact that I do not see the difference.. on some days ... my mind does not allow me to see the change.. I believe its an internal issue that we all have to get over.. it will take time.. take care... MISS YA TOO!!

Topic: RE: WHAT IS HAPPENING
busy busy busy.  haven't been on here for atleast a month.  Had to go "home" and everyone was trippin about the way I look now.  It made me realize that I still see myself like I did when i was 363lbs.  Everybody else sees a big difference, a see a little difference, the only time I see a real difference is if I look at old pictures of myself.  Ofcouse i feel very different and i can do so many more things.  My life is sooooooooooooo different than a year ago.  I meant to sit down and make a list on my surgiversary, but didn't get around to it.  Also had a friend visit for two weeks, she says after seeing me "go" she's ready to have the surgery.  She kept talking about how much energy I have now, and I've been sick lately and am still doing 100 x's better!  I told her it's the second best decision i ever made and she should go for it.  She was talking about and researching it before I even considered it, but all the negative nellie's talked her out of it. 
Been missing this board!  Hoping everyone is doing well as well as doing a lot!

Feeling a little in the dumps because I haven't done as well as some of my fellow July'er's. No need to beat my self up though because I have lost about 106#'s and gained energy, health and a great role model for my kids in the process. The weight is still creeping off and I look pretty good in my 14's. I feel great and have gotten alot stronger (physically, spiritualy, and mentally) during this journey. There have been some set backs along the way but I'm still confident that I made the best decision for me.
Glad to see that everyone has had so much success. Keep up the good work July Babes seeing the same faces on this board make me know I need to come back mre often. Thanks GeorgiaPeach

Yeah I can wear around a 12 but The bottom of my stomach pretty much stops the size from going down...I will look into getting that fix just not willing to pay a lot for it.. going through my insurance to get a necessary surgery.. I hope it gets approved that's my only area of needed improvement...

It's so cool that we all seem to be about the same size.  I am in a 10 now, but if I don't feel like wearing my "fat sucker underwear" I will put on a 12.  I never thought that a size 12 would be my baggy jeans.  I am right with you guys with the skin.  It's so funny, because most girls daydream about exotic trips, winning the lotto, etc... I daydream about getting my flying squirrel wings removed, and the spare tire around my stomach, oh, and have I mentioned the sharpei legs? LOL!  I love you ladies!  You are all a real inspiration.  I have been going up and down with the same two pound over the last few weeks, so I am trying to switch things up.  I got a new food journal to bring with me in my purse, and will start using it tomorrow.  Not sure if I am eating enough, as funny as it sounds.  Also, I have been hungry late at night.  Time to get the old protien drinks back out, so I can have something with protien.  And water... I am so bad abou****er.  I need to get a gallon of water and just fill it up and keep it at work with me and force myself to drink it all day long!

OHHHH the skin!!! I forgot about the skin!!!! I have so much skin and I feel like it looks so nasty.  STILL, I wear my shorts proudly lol. I wear a 12 easy, and if I didnt have this skin around my middle, arms, and legs I'd probably be able to fit nicely into an 8.

That is so AWESOME JULIE... Your pic is cute..it feels good to go shopping and things fit.. and you don't have to worry about not being able to just pull and try on... I feel ya on the PS... I any were between a 13/14 and its because I have some flab around the middle, and one side of my body has more flab then the other.. I'm trying to get my DOC to say that the skin is not healthy for me.. so I can get them to pay.. we will keep our fingers crossed. If i get rid of the skin.. i believe I can get in 12. I know about them BATWINGS..LOL.. but I did find a jacket on JC Penny.com I got a 280.00 jacket but only paid 50.00 dollars for it!!... and I like the attention for the fellas such as I get more doors open for me, then when I was 180LBS..

Take care Julie
