Sandy, At first I was thinking I didn't want to do this, I can't BRAG, but it's a great way to boost self-esteem, right? So here we go: Achievement: Exercising 4-5 x's a week, and loving it! Lost: 102 lbs. Size: 26 to 18 (and counting, I hope) BP med discontinued Joined the century club I am the same size as when I got married I am feeling great, have more energy, and can lay on my stomach now, that I haven't done for years. I still have a lot of fears about emotional eating and I don't want to go back to where I was, so this is my work in progress.

Yeah for me ---- I've lost 73 pounds in 3 months and 2 weeks, I gone from a size 20 (should have been in a 22 but I "stretched" it out) to a baggy size 10. I'm no longer taking pre-diabetes, blood pressure, cholesterol or acid reflux meds. I no longer have foot pain and get run around like the energizer bunny!!!! I LOVE WLS AND ALL MY NEW FRIENDS!!!! XXOO

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~~

Great post Sandy, I've lost 56lbs, I went from a size 2-3x (22/24) to a size 16 and xl/lg, I no longer take any diabetes meds or shots!!!, no longer take Lipitor, no longer use the cpap, I am firmly in Onederland at 169. I haven't been this weight since before my 19 year old was born-before I was pregnant with her actually. I have so much energy I literally bounce off the walls, I'm giggly and giddy a lot now. I feel confident and comfortable in my own body now. I am flirtatious with guys (something I've not done in YEARS!) There is a guy at work I am dying for him to ask me out...he flirts with me all the time, but so far no date-maybe one of these days I'll get brave enough to ask HIM!!! LOL! I get compliments all the time from the guys I know, I've been told that I'm not the sad quiet one anymore that I've "blossomed". I am happier than I've been in years, I'm healthier, I'm so thankful for life now. YAY to ALL of us!!!!! Debi
