Haven't posted since...

Hello to all, I believe that I haven't posted since I had surgery on Nov 12th sorry. But no time better than the present! Update: started at 256 I am now at 189 a total loss of -67# I am feeling great. But my arms and tummy are going south of the border!!! I can eat anything and everything with no hassles, which is good but not so good. I have learned to control the urges and actually don't miss the sweets at all. I am superdiduper greatful for this surgery and life in general. God is awesome!!! Always, Johanna

Stellar!!!!! - we're neck to neck - I had my surgery on the 11th & have lost 68# - I feel really bad sometimes that I can eat so well - it worries me occassionally - truth be told. But like you I don't miss sweets - I have been having a really really stressful time at work lately though & found myself eating two inch size chunks of cookie dough (my all time stress food) before I got miserably uncomfortable & dizzy - My arms look terrible - but my stomach is not so bad - try yoga - the down dog position is already beginning to tighten up my arms & it's a pretty low-impact activity - Plus on the really stressful days (when I've had my class) it really helps reduce the stress & clears my head. Many happy congratulations to you!!!!! Let's hope we continue to do really well - what's your weight goal if you don't mind sharing? Mine is between 150 - 175.
