Just wanted to check in....
Probably don't even remember me it's been so long....but I wanted to come back and say hi and give an update. Well, I was 6 months out as of the 15th of May....I am a little confused about what to go by for my start weight so I am now going by what the hospitals website says....it says that I am 107.5 lbs down as of today. I can't believe it...I can't honestly tell you what size I wear because I wear my clothes until they fall off. I am 7 lbs where from where I want to be on my 30th birthday which is June 11th. I think I can easily fit into a 20 and possibly an 18 by now. The last thing I bought was a 22 and they are really big on me now. I am going shopping for my Birthday and getting me one outfit. I am hoping that it is a size 18. I am doing well except I did end up in the hospital on the 16th of May. I had pancrites (? SP) and ended up having another surgery a week ago today. I had to have my Galbladder out. I started back to work yesterday (half day and full day today). I am really happy but kind of wish I would loose faster...it is still coming off, just really slow. My Dr. said not to worry about the numbers as long as they are going down. That is what I am trying to do. So...how is everyone here?

Isn't it a great feeling when the clothes start falling off? I'm also considered a slow loser & it does get discouraging, but hang in there. YOU are doing fantastic! It's taken a year to get 95 lbs off for me so you are doing great. Keep up the good work.
Hugs
Carolyn
