Congratulations--ain't life grand! I love the problem of having to buy clothes--except for the cost. But then I wind up with things I really like that are too big. Such a problem to have. Keep up the good work, Sally

That is excellent news to loose that much in a short amount of time! I was just approved for the surgery but I don't have a date yet. I am predicting I should be ready first part of July. I hope my WLS is as successful as yours.

Topic: down 162 pounds so far

HI everyone it has been awhile since I posted last. It has been 9 months since my surgery now and I have lost 162 pounds so far. This has been the greatest thing I have ever done for myself is to have the weight loss surgery. Only bad thing is keeping up with clothes that fit

Topic: Jamie S Surgery update

I just talked with Jamie's husband and just got out of surgery about 10 minutes ago and is doing great. Everything went wonderfully and she will be in recovery for about an hour. I hope to talk with her this evening if she is up to it. Thank you all for your continued support and prayers for a speedy recovery. Rebecca

My surgery was a success textbook wise, however pain and real life wise I wasnt doing so great. I'm two weeks out now and am feeling better. I dont know how much I 've lost as of yet though. My husband thinks its about twenty pounds. Much Love Amanda
