I just wanted to drop in and say hi!! I hope you guys are all doing well.  I will be one year out in just under a month and i will post pictures then.  My brother is getting married 2 days after my one year and I am a bridesmaid so I will take and post pictures from the wedding.  I am down 115 so far.  I have been pretty stuck since I have been having all the problems.  Doc won't give me a fill until we figure out what is wrong and right now we think I will have to have port revision surgery.  I had my gallbladder out a month ago and we thought that was the problem but come to find out it was probably port pain all along.  which means the gallbladder could have stayed but good thing they took it out cause I had 30 stones.  But now that means more surgery but if it will make me feel better then I don't care.  Hopefully after we get this taken care of I can lose a little more weight.  I actually feel like another 40 pounds and I will be finished.  I will at least be happy with myself.  I was a little shicked because my doctor here told me he wasn't happy with my progress.  I think that is crazy since I have lost almost 10 pounds a month since surgery.  I am feeling pretty happy with what I have done.  I am missing the monthly support group meetings.  I need to start going to the ones here.  I know I do better when I am going to support groups and talking with others that are on the same journey. Anyway ladies I am missing you all and hope to make it back to Hawaii to see everyone someday.  We have some friends getting married in March out there and my hubby is officiating the wedding so we will probably be out then.  Long way off but it gives me something lo look forward to.  Hope all is well!!  Much love to you from the Lone Star State!!

Oh Ginger I miss you.  I haven't gone to a support group meeting for the last two months.  I think I will be going to this Wednesdays one.  I have been working Wednesdays but I just quit my PT job so I can start attending again.  I am glad you are doing well.  I looked at your BMI and you are already at 33 way to go!!! You are totally amazing.
