5 Months out

Hey there everyone! I just wanted to say hello, and share my success thus far!  I am 5 months out of surgery.. And I am down 102lbs!!! And I am inbetween sizes 12-14.. I am so happy with my progress thus far, and would do it all over again. This has been such an amazing journey. However right now in my life, I am going through a rough time. My partner Ann and I have split up, and my 3 year old daughter and I are moving into an apartment.  On top of that, my classes just started up again, and I am working too.. So I am busy busy!  Anywhoo.. I just wanted to share my journey so far.. Hope that you are all doing well!! Tarka

OMG!  I cannot believe how much you have lost in such a short time!  I am starting uot nearly the same as you so this gives me such inspiration.  Can you believe it between a 12-14.  I mean who would have thought.  When I started my process I thought I would be happy at 180.  I thought---dang I am gonna be good lookin at 180.  But then when they said my goal was 138 I about crapped myself.  I think I weighed that in kindergarten!   You are doing amazing!  Sorry to hear about the split with your partner.  Things will look up---and you have your daughter to be strong for!  Are you going to school around here---since you mentioned classes.  I hope your move goes well and things start to look up and be less stressful.   So I am thinking you need to post a new pic :)

Tarka! congrats on your loss! You have done so great!  I am so sorry about Ann. Keep your chin up!  And good luck on your classes! What are you studying? 

Congratulations on such an amazing weight loss so far....WOW. Sorry to hear about your split with Ann.  It's got to be a stressful time right now with all that's going on.  Take care!

Tarka, You have done so well since the surgery. I was sorry to hear you and your daughter are going thru some emotional hard times right now.

Stay well and please keep us posted.

Prayers your way,

Pam
