New Picture as well....
Of me at 133 lbs on my profile. I do know how it feels though to be gaining. I was at 133, and now I go anywheres from 133 to 139. It is fustrating and I hate it, but it is what it is. I am way below goal (165 was my surgeons goal) so I really cant complain. I have lost 136 lbs since July 2005 and have went from a size 26/28 to a size 5-7. I was trying on coats yesterday and could fit into some smalls. But sometimes I dont see myself that little? Very confusing for me!
Congrats to all of the weight loss everyone has accomplished. I have been lurking and reading and you all look so fabulous...
Thanks hon! I'm very happy for many reasons, not the least of which has been this wonderful, "life-breathing" surgery. I also moved out on my own with my boys finally and got away from the ex which has been very liberating! I get to "struggle" on my own as a single Mom now, but I'm so much happier.
Thank you for your beautiful comment!
Hugs,

I think it's normal for us to fluctuate a few pounds with our new bodies. I know it's frustrating and I hate it..I am especially doing that now but I chalk it up to water. I can empathize with you about not seeing yourself as "that little". I see that myself from time to time and it's just my mind playing those evil tricks on me. I think you look awesome and what difference!!
Angela you look wonderful. Congrats to you and give yourself a giant pat on the back. I also go up and down about 5 pounds. I just say I have quit losing which I think I have. I have stayed the same, with the fluctuation for almost 2 mths. I Just can't keep watching the scale so close, but that is easier said than done. Anyway I just wanted to say congratulations.
