A new topic....sorry, but it is about me...
Hi all!
I have not posted in a while but I am today. OH wrote me and said...post please.
I am. I am 6 months out and down 109 pounds.
I don't know about the rest of you but it is almost surreal at times. I have followed my doctor's requests for over 90% of it and it has not been bad. I have only gotten sick 6 times. I think I that is good.
I am happy with the changes. I feel healthier and I can tell that.
I am now in a size large shirt and 16 jean, 14 dress...some 12 dresses. I fit into a goal shirt I had held on to a SF 49er's shirt!
Hubby thinks I look great! He is always complementary and kind to me about my loss. My son says, Mommy you were always beautiful.
So that is the all about me post...sorry

I think tooting your own horn is awesome. I am very excited for all of your loss and I hope the compliments keep coming from both hubby and your son.
I just think it is amazing how for so long (or at least I did) I let my self live the way I was living. I was a very large (240 lbs on a 5'1" frame) girl but not as large as some of the other ladies on here and it was so weird I actually got to the point were I wouldn't go out unless it was an emergency, to work(when I still had to work)or to the grocery. I was like a hermit I lost so much time with my wonderful husband and beautiful daughter. Until I became morbidly obese my mother used to say that my ego and my personality couldn't fit into the same room, but once I started packing on the pounds I just retreated inward.
Now that I am knocking on the door of an almost 75 pound loss it is like I am a brand new person- I love to shop again, I love to do my hair, wear makeup, put on high heels and we just have a never ending social life. It is so amazing to me that with the help of a little plastic band(even though mine is fluid free and just hanging there) some positive thoughts and a bit of will power has changed my life.
I owe so much to Dr. Tom, his nurse Steve and his old and new office staff they really have given me a new lease on life.
