Hi Donna, I check the board often too,I just dont post alot! I have been praying for you and your husband. I am doing great!! I am on track with my weight loss so far this year! I am still losing!(yeah) I am currently at 175#s. thats a 200 pound lost from my highest weight!! I am enjoying my new life so much!! I am currently researching plastic surgeons. I am really going to need a panniculectomy(apron removal) I want to get the ball rolling and maybe by june when I am 18 months post op I will be ready to go!!!!! Hope you are well and I will continue to keep your family in prayer. Melinda 348/175

That's wonderful that your on track Melinda I would like to get my arms done and a chin lift and my husband still keeps laughing at me about the chin as he says it don't look bad. Sadly my insurance don't cover PS Thanks for keeping my family in your prayers. Ron is doing much better, just tired all the time but we go in Monday with more tests. All the testing is what gets you run down as we must travel almost an hour from home and then wait, wait and wait some more. I guess it's all worth it if we can pin point what might have caused Ron's bleeding. Hugs Donna 38/154

That's wonderful that your on track Melinda, keep up the good work Good luck on your PS. Wish I could afford it but husbands insurance don't cover it Thanks for keeping us in your prayers. Hopefully we will find out what caused the bleeding and if not then let's pray it NEVER returns. Hugs Donna 338/154

Hey Donna, I'm so glad to hear that Ron is doing better and I sure hope that they can find out what caused the bleeding. You sound like your doing ok too. I know what you mean about he throwing up, mine is really brought on by not chewing well enough, that is really the only time I do it. Well things for me are going pretty good. I'm starting to feel like myself again and my incisions from my panniculectomy are healing really nicely. I know I've been gone for awhile and it's just been so hard for me to sit at my computer lately with my back problems that were brought on from the surgery. I've been going to the Dr. to have it adjusted and I am going back again tomorrow to have him help me with it. THis last weekend my hubby had to go to San Antonio for a workshop and Mackenzie and I got to go with him and we spent the weekend shopping which was alot of fun. I was amazed at the sizes that I bought, this surgery has been a blessing. I hope everyone is doing ok with life and with they're journey's. Take care, Loni At Goal 237/122

Hi Loni You look wonderful my dear. I really need to up date my picture. We understand about sitting up after surgery, don't we gain? Which surgery brought on the back problems, WLS or PS? I'm finding out that certain things make me get sick. I had a chocolate chip cookie last night. I know SHAME on me but Ron made them. Half an hour later I was spitting up the chocolate, not throwing up but spitting up as there is a big difference. Sometimes I just burp and up comes what ever is ******g my pouch off. Hugs Donna 338/154

Hi Donna, Actually the WLS surgery started the back pain and it got a little bit better and then the PS really got it going pretty badly. Those darn chocolate chip cookies, who can resist them. Mackenzie had some and I ate one and it made me so sick I had to go to bed. Let's just say I learned my lesson that day. You just never know what is going to **** off your pouch from one day to the other. Take care, Loni

I'm glad that chocolate effects me this way as it keeps my fingers out of them Donna

Hi Loni, I love your new post pic. I saw your skin pics on your profile. That is so weird looking. I screamed OMG and my DH said what's wrong. I said your have got to see these pictures. I'm glad you had fun in San Antonio. We love it there. Did you get to go to the Riverwalk? Take care, Diana 379/180/?

Hi Diana, Thank you so much, I kind of like that picture too. I'm really hard on myself in regards to my pictures. I know what you mean, I freaked out when I saw the pictures also. To think that they took that much skin off of me, eakkkkkk. We had a great time in San Antonio, but we didn't make it down to the Riverwalk this trip, next one for sure. My little girl wants to take a boat ride so we will definetely do it then. Take care, Loni
