Who belongs to a Support Group, other than this?
I love my Liv-lite support group! I learn something every time I go. We also plan activities, such as picnics, dances, and we have a dinner cruise this Friday. I hope that all of you have access to a support group, because I believe that it can help answer a lot of questions that we have. It also helps with the mental healing that we go through. It helps when you know that you're not alone! I've seen a lot of people go in to the support group depressed, but leave feeling better. I'm a believer!!! YWLB, Jane 362/207/162

Topic: Challenge for October
Okay, so as we all know our "month/year" is coming up here in a few short days! I challenge you ALL to wish good things upon our fellow October babies for their anniversary/rebirthday! If you don't do them all each day, just take 5-10 on each day and show your support and enthusiasm!
Lets go and light those support pages up!

You're 5'8 right? 155 sounds really good to me at that height! I'm just shooting for 180 while I'm at 5'9 right now. You've done so well. It is hard to know what's a good stopping place. I always told myself that my body would know, but still it would be awesome to be this tall and a size 6

Amy,
You're doing great!!
With our one year anniversary approaching I've gone from "I'm happy with where I'm at" to "yikes! I'm so close to goal I've just gotta make it by my one year mark!". Then I worry that my goal of 155 isn't low enough, and that perhaps I should be losing more. Somedays I look in the mirror and think I'm done...and I look great (even my PCP last week said it looked like I need to be done!). Then there are other days...as I think about my TT being only a few weeks away..that I think I need to get my butt in gear and get rid of more of "this fat" before my TT!! I'm not sure if I really have "this fat" to be worried about, or if its just me not adjusting to being done! I long for the day when I can feel comfortable staying as I am! Ahhhh the saga of an almost thin woman!

Congratulations, Amy!!!
My year anniversary is next Friday, October 1st! I started out at 362lbs. I'm down to 207lbs. My year goal was to get down to 200lbs., but it's ok that I didn't make it, because I feel GREAT!!! I work out and can live my life, not just observe it. I think that we're all very brave to have the courage to not only want to be healthy, but to actually do something about it! I'm proud of you and all of us, who have had the GB Surgery. Your WL Buddy, Jane 362/207/162
