7 months out

I am 7 months out and have lost a total of 115 pounds! Quite the accomplishment for me! People see me and say, "thats a whole person you've lost". It is truly incredible and sometimes I think I am still obese. I am hoping my head catches up with my body soon. I feel good for the first time in several years, no more pain in my back and legs. I am so busy now that I don't even have time to watch my favorite soap! Thank you GOD, for watching over me and letting me come to a new life and be healthier!

On the 9th I will also be 7months out and have lost 120lbs. I went home to WA to see my friends and family and all they did was cry. I know how you feel and want to tell you congrads. Gloria

Hi there everyone, I also am 7 months out, my wls was 12/6/02. My pre-op wt was 399lbs and I have loss 110 lbs. I walk 2 miles each morning rain or shine. and must say I enjoy doing it. I can do things I haven't done in years. I wish I had done this years ago, so I could of enjoyed my kids more as they were growing up. Im really sad about that part of my life, missing out , but that's the past. I can enjoy them now for sure, just like some husbands, don't like change I've heard my kids talk about their concerns also. I guess they think Im going to book up and leave them or something. I laugh about it but they are for real. I guess they think some man will find interest in me and take me away. LOL yeah right!, anyhow I must say I love my wl journey, and I do try to make this a fun thing everyday. I try not to cry the blues about every ache and pain that comes along. I had aches and pains before my wls and I didn't cry about it as much. maybe it was because I had nothing to blame it on. hmmmmmm. Oh well my AMOS friends take care and continue to do well on your journey, you are all big losers.~*~Hugs~*~
