I 'm finally out of those 300s Thank God!! I never want to see that ever again. I'm down 61 lbs. since surgery!! & Total "wl" since Jan. is 74 lbs. including pre-op diet, thus far!! I can see the change in my face, but when I look at myself in the mirror, I don't really see much of a difference?? Is that Normal?? I've been getting compliments, but they are hard to accept, because: I'm no where near the Docs goal or my personal goal. I still have such a long road to travel & so far my journey has been good!!
Highest weight- 354 lbs.
Day of surgery- 341 lbs.
3-month post op- 280 lbs.!!
Wow!! My new saying is like (Rocky) GO FOR IT!!! I'm 26 lbs. away from my first 100 lb. loss!! Yea-Yeah!!!

That is sooo great.   Take each compliment and hold on to it tight for those days when you are not really feeling your best, remember when you heard "You Look Great" and .  You deserve it.

Thank You!! I'm trying to hang In there & be patient with myself, & my progress!! I just want to wake up like tomarrow morning & be at goal!!! already!! but I know it will Take a little more time for me to really see & believe that It is happening!!! The weight Is coming OFF!! my biggest clue is in the clothes. So even though my mirror is cheating me, my clothes are telling me that there is a difference! Peace. jbug.

That is a fantastic weight loss. Way to go!!! I am 8 months out and have lost about 85 lbs. The changes come slowly at first. Yo start to notice things like your underwear falling off, your pants getting very baggy, and your bras on the last insde hook. You look in the mirror and think- do I really look like I have lost weight? Then one day you do a picture comparison and you can see the difference immeidately. Look at my avitar then look at my pictures on my profile.  I see it now. I can't believe I looked like that. Aime

A few days ago, I was looking at my drivers lic. Pic. & I could see a big difference in my face!! from looking in the mirror, I knew right off that my face! Didn't look like that any more!! So it's little things like that I can see a difference. My bra is on the last hook!! I'm ready to go bra shopping this weekend because the "girls" are hanging to much? with like no support? Like I'm not even wearing a bra, but I do! Thanks!! Aime. Peace. jbug
