Where is our Dec Board????

Yes, I'm guilty of lurking too. Just wondering how everybody is doing? I''m on a losing plateau and it's ok right now. It's been fun adjusting to my new body and getting used to doing normal things again. I went to the movies and didn't have the seat squeeze my butt. LOL Cheri

Hi Cheri, I'm here. I know it's so quiet in here. Yes, it's great fitting in seats. Hubby and I went to the Houston rodeo and I fit in the seat. I could even cross my legs. In the past I had to squeeze in the seats. I even didn't go a few years because I was so miserable. As for my weight loss. I keep bouncing between 175 to 177. I still want to lose more. I would have to get down to 154 to have a normal BMI. I really don't see that happening since I have lost so much. Well gotta run and get ready for work. Thanks for posting. Take care, Diana 379/177/? 5'6"

Congrats on your loss and keep up the good work!!! I'm kinda taking a breather too right now. The rodeo sounds so fun!!! Cheri

I lurk and sometimes respond to posts. There hasn't been much activity on the December 04 board lately, so I hang out on the Main Message board, or the WLS Grads Message board. I am still struggling to reach my goal weight. I am at 189 and need to lose another 39 pounds to reach goal. I am enjoying my new sizes, but don't want to stop just yet. I live the second hand shops. LOL Afraid to buy new clothes until I reach my goal weight. Glad to hear from you and to see you are enjoying your new body. I hope 2006 is a wonderful year for you. Karen G 294/ 189/ 150

Girlfriend, I'm always at the Goodwill lately. Actually I've found some really decent designer clothes at 2nd hand shops. Who woulda geussed that I could shop there and not "Catherines" after a year. Enjoy your weight loss and have a great time shopping. Hugs, Cheri

Cheri, Here I am. I'm loving the new me, although it is really hard to get used to at times. Take care, Loni

Your pic looks GREAT!!!! Wow! I know what you mean. I keep thinking "where am I". LOL. Cheri

HERE I AM! I am lurking in the shadows ... jus****ching... waiting.... for something to post to! lol Anyway, I am fine just staying around the 187-190 area. I would love to hit my goal weight. I went down to 185 ad started to work on muscle tone. I went back up to 190 a week later. Let's hope it is all muscle tone. I have a goal to be down to 180 by April 8th and to be down to 175 ( my personal goal) by April 20th. I started to do something that I haven't done in 10 years. I am bicycling now! I wanted to teach my son. I have not succeeded in the past but this time I actually got on my mothers bike and took off. I had so much fun that my son got on his bike and started to chase me! We have been bike riding every nice day since. I am now looking for an attachment for my daughter to ride with me. They are so expensive! This would really help so that I could ride in the day while my son is at school. She is 4 and really wants to go riding with me! Enough babble! Happy to be lurking and glad to see a few more posts recently! your sister in WLS Chandi 305/187/?

I was within 4 pounds of my goal (9 pounds of the doctors goal) hit it for 4 days and am now back up to 155 pounds - I really want to be 145 pounds - at least between 145 and 150 - I am going through a lot of head stuff right now and the head is winning - I must get back on track - I must get back on track - I must get back on track.....the last 10-20 pounds are hard to get off and keep off...
