YAAAAAAAAAAAAY! -41lbs

Ok.. big yay today. I started at 280 on surgery day 4/19. This morning, just less than a week before my 3 month mark, I am 239!!!! Whoo hoo! Another week and I will probably be at my lowest weight I have been in 10 years! My energy level is wonderful and I feel great. Usually by the end of the day I am pretty tired but that is to be expected. My workouts the last few weeks at the gym have been fantastic. I've been posting them on the OH bodybuilding forums. Come hang out over there if you need some exercise inspiration even if you are not a bodybuilder. Great group of people. http://www.obesityhelp.com/morbidobesity/member-interests/bodybuilding_weightlifting/posts.html These days I'm dreaming of things like becoming a certified spin cycle instructor, skiing this winter, and horseback riding in the fall. Next year.. how about beach volleyball on a public beach in a bathing suit and maybe doing a sprint triathlons?!! My 3 month follow up visit with Dr. Kligman is actually at the end of the month. I'll try to update my profile by that time. Maybe add in a new picture.

Stayce ... Congratulations you are doing just GREAT !!! Hugs, Mo

Thanks Mo!

Congratulations, Stacye! You've done an awesome job! Hugs, Tracy

Thanks Tracy!!

Awesome! For right now, you are leaving this bandster in your dust. (but keep watching behind you.... I'll catch up! ;) I see that you are an exercizing demon.... good for you. I'm still messing around with my foot (getting it packed in plaster again tomorrow, as a matter of fact) Keep up the good work....hey, and how 'bout passing along some of those closthes you're shrinking out of? ;) J/K Barbara

I know you will catch up Barbara and in a year or so when I am slowing down you will be just continue to move right along!!! Oh no.. what is going on with the foot? I thought you got out of the plaster last time! You know... I probably will have plenty of clothes to go around so don't joke. I'll bring a few things with me next time we hang out. Are you able to move around with the plaster on? Do you want to meet at lunch time again? Shoot me an email and let me know =)

Congrats Stacy!! Melanie....
