I posted my before and 6 month pics from PNC and my family Christmas pic as well, check them out if you want. I had a few dangerous weeks, where I was grazing and eating crap, but I've pulled myself up and am back on the losing track.  Hmm, funny how since I quit that, I lost 4 pounds in a week... A few new wows: I've lost 101 pounds! I weigh less then my hubby! I was able to buy some sweatshirts that were LARGE--that's right, with no XXXs in front of the L! I've never been any smaller than I am now, since I graduated from high school, so I am delighted with the possibility.  On the health front, I've got a ton of energy, my blood pressure is 108/68 and my resting pulse is 55 (my blood pressure and pulse were pretty good before my surgery--120/80 and 70 bpm), my sleep apnea is greatly improved and I am much more confident.  I love RNY! Amy

P.S.  I am leaving on a plane very early tomorrow morning for Thanksgiving with my inlaws.  Please be thinking of me traveling on the busiest day of the year with my 3 year old...what was I thinking?

Congratulations!    You've done so well--it's obvious by the pictures how well you're doing!  The milestones are awesome---a regular L shirt instead of XXetc, weighing less than your hubby.  How cool are these??!!

Thanks Sue,

You are right the milestones are amazing and though we all do this to improve our health--the milestones really celebrate successes!

Fitness is not about age or a size -- it's really about an attitude and life style!!!
Life is not measured by the number of breathes we take, but by the moments that take our breathe away~~
