My 16 Week Update

I had my 16 week appointments with my surgeon and dietician and everything went well.  Both were very pleased with my results thus far, as am I.  This surgery was truly a blessing for me, not only have a lost 78 pounds since my pre-op liquid diet.....I'm also off of my blood pressure medication and I don't have sleep apnea anymore.  What a joy to be free of my CPAP machine after 8 years.  I've posted new pictures in my profile, one pre-op from the dietician and three current pictures.  I tried to update my Avatar but it says my picture file is too large???  I just purchased a digital camera and I'm not really fond of having my picture taken so this is really "living on the edge" for me.  Thank you all for your honest and educational posts.....I don't post often but I visit the website everyday and always take away something.  Stay Warm!!!!

What a difference 16 weeks makes! WOW!  You look fabulous!  You are absolutely shrinking!  Keep up the good work!   BTW - We totally have to organize another Stillwater coffee - it was so fun to get so many of us together and of course to see you! Maybe after the holidays when we all need a Saturday morning to relax! Take care!

Thanks Tracy,  I agree, another Stillwater coffee event would be fun!!  Let's keep that in mind!
