10 month checkup

Hi everyone! I had my ten month check up this morning -- I can't believe its been 10 months already!!!!! My goal for today was 150 -- I was 153....the doctor was actually very happy. I was a little disappointed, but she assured me that I am still losing and that is a good thing -- she said sometimes people get to this point and they stall -- she said you are still losing so you are doing everything right! They always know how to make me feel better!!! My hubby is a big support too, so that helps!! My BMI is 27 and normal for me is 25 -- I am sooooooo close and she was thrilled that I am so close in just 10 months time! I have lost 127 pounds since I started this journey in April 2006!! I even went shopping today and bought a few things for this Fall -- I already warned my hubby that I will have to go shopping again next summer because everything I have for this summer is already too big! LOL.... My goal for my 1 year check up on October 18 is 135.....18 pounds to go....I hope I can make it!!! Hope everyone is doing well....I don't post much, but I do check up on everyone daily and know that I think of you all the time!!!!! Love and Hugs to all of you! Holly

Dear Holly: It sounds like you had a great check up! Good for you! Keep up the good work and you will achieve your goal, I just know it! Dawn

Hey Holly, We are only one day apart. My surgery was on the 19th. Sounds like you are doing very well. I am five pounds from my goal of 150. I would love to sit between 145 and 150 but if I never lose/gain another once (at 150) I will be a very happy camper. Congrat's on your seccessful appoinmtent. Tara

Congrats on the great appt, Holly!!! I'm so happy that you are doing so well and still losing. Isn't this surgery great??? I know what you mean about having to buy all new clothes for next summer. I was hoping to have some of my capri's from Spring fit in the Fall, but that is not the case. I did get a pair of size 8 Levi jean shorts on clearance for next summer, so I atleast will have ONE thing to wear. Some of my shirts should still fit me, too. Especially if I opt for implants, I should fit pretty good into my tops that are snug on my belly right now. Most of my tops are a size Large, so they should fit good with bigger boobies and no stomach rolls next summer. Hee Hee. Hopefully we will be able to meet up around the time of our one year surgiversary. I doubt I can travel anywhere for a board meeting with my ps coming in November. No $$$ for travel right now. Good luck meeting your goal for your 1 yr followup. Hugs, Tabby
