You are absolutely gorgeous- before and now even moreso!!! Please let me know what you've been eating and what exercise you are doing. I currently live in the Atlanta area, but am moving back to N Florida in a few weeks, so I've been checking out the Florida board and I must say I love reading your posts- what an inspiration you are!!!

thanks so much for your replies! and Krystal, welcome back to Florida soon!!! I have been eating just as my nutritionist has said, and surprisingly enough--I am 4 months out and haven't touched rice, bread, pasta, or anything of that nature (those were my evils before surgery). I also walk 30-40 minutes a day at work on my 15 min. breaks (2 of them--I just bring tennis shoes to work and make myself leave my desk for those breaks and walk around the building) and every Tues, Thurs, & Sun I either go to the gym for 1-2 hours or I go swimming in my pool. I just started the exercise program last month, the first 2 months I just didn't get the motivation. Luckily, my energy has picked waaaaay up!! Also, they have this new machine that is so light on the joints and back (I have had 2 back surgeries in the past), so I have been using it for my stomach and arms. Some days I do slack though, I definitely am not perfect, but I have found it much easier than before surgery. Lately I have been craving a good old fashioned bike ride...so I have been bugging the hubby for a huffy... Thanks again for the comments--they really are a boost and I'm glad I could inspire *blushes* just as you all inspire me!!!!! -Phoenix

Wow, you look great! Keep up the good work. I enjoyed reading your profile and woman, you've been through alot. I wish you all the best! We're practically neighbors. I'm in Carrollwood and am opening a personal training studio on Sheldon Road in the new shopping center across from Outback, between Citrus Park Mall and Westchase. I met a bunch of great women from the Town & Country support group in Orlando this weekend - you ladies are awesome Diane LadyBodFit.com
