Heyyyy! Update time!

Wow I havent been here in sooo long! I miss you guys! I just spent some time catching up on all the posts. But it seems like you guys are busy living life too. I am down 88 lbs now, and i really want to hit 100, but many people tell me I am "done". I don't think so, but I would be ok if i did stay here at this weight. I just don't want to gain. I love being able to wear what i want. I am 140 lbs now. I stopped doing fitday for a while. I'll let you know how that goes longer term. For the short term, it seems ok. I am less food-focused. Which i think is a good thing. I am going to wait to have my tummy tuck and possible arms/thighs until i see what happens to it all over time. i think things are still continuing to adjust. I work out at the gym 2-5 times a week and love it. I think that helps as well. So that is my update! I have been hanging out with my daughter's 16 year old friends and have been mistaken for her a couple of times driving by! That was cool!! Say hi and give an update! Love, Sue

Wow Sue! I haven't been here in a long time either. You have a new picture up and you look gorgeous!! I am sooo proud of your 88 lbs. I "dream" of the day when I am at 140. I am pretty happy to be down to 180!!! That is what I weighed when I graduated from high school! I still have 47 lbs. to go, but I still think that I will make it. I am actually exercising 3 times weekly now and actually enjoying it. That in itself is a MIRACLE!!! LOL Again, according to your picture you look Mahvelous! Hugs, Pam

Hi Sue! I am now wearing size 10 or 12, depending on the cut. I have lost 88% of my excess body weight which translates to 151 lbs since last May and 104 lbs since surgery. I go to the gym to do aqua arobics 5-6 times a week. It's less impact on my knee. My arms look great. I use weights in the water and they have gotten very contoured. I am pleased with myself also but I still weigh 162 lbs and I am still pushing to lose more. I am getting my knee replacement surgery on July 26. I was hoping to releive the pain by losing this weight but I have already done to much damage to the knee. But I look forward to a quick easy recovery! As for a tummy tuck- I would love to have one. My belly is not bad, just wrinkly. I am afraid I will have to save the money up before I can consider that option. But boy would it look good flat!
