After 17 years I finally see a "2" again!!

Thanks hon! BTW, I really liked what you said in your profile about WLS being like having a baby. I couldn't agree more. I thought I was sooooo prepared by reading books, information on the net and talking to other's who'd had it. I was still in for a few surprises that I hadn't anticipated. Hugs, Vi

Yay Violet!! I am SO happy for you! Believe me, I KNOW how you feel. When I went to my doctors (primary care, not surgeons) and they stood me on one of those old fashioned scales, well I just about cried for joy when they had to move the notch back from 300-350 to the 250-300! It IS an awesome feeling! I can't wait to go down another notch!! Maybe by summer! Blessings, Nonna

Thanks Nonna Wow, now that you mention it, I would love to get one one of those old fashioned scales now and be able to move down that notch! I remember for so many years always sliding that bad boy to the end and the times when even that wasn't enough and the nurse would look at me and ask me if I had any "idea" as to how much I weighed so she could put it on my chart. It used to depress the heck out of me and I used to pretend it didn't bother me. It's so nice not to be afraid of the scale anymore though! I bet you that you WILL be down that other notch by summer too! Hugs, Vi
