:-o I No Longer Qualify!
Good Morning, Fellow Mississippians !
Just got done taking my shower and weighing myself 
.. and I officially NO LONGER QUALIFY FOR SURGERY!! 
My BMI is down to 39.8 @ 232 lbs and I've lost 102 lbs since my highest weight back in March.
I can not tell you how much this surgery has done for me, and I know how some of you guys have a hard time, either getting surgery, or are post op and have problems with recovery. I can only tell you, though, just hang in there ! I would do it again and again and again, once a year, if I had to !
I'm getting compliments these days from a lot of people, my family back home in Louisiana who sees me once a month < maybe LOL> and especially co-workers
. I've recently had to turn in my wedding bands to have them sized, and lo and behold, a coworker of mine came up to me, telling me how good I'm looking and asking me out 
! It was funny to me, and I gracefully declined and told him, I'm sorry but I am happily married
but thanked him 
for making my day 
So now it's up to me to make it down another 100 lbs, I am half way there at five months out.. and I'm quite sure I will make it in another year. I'm not in a hurry, but I am anxious to make it to goal 
Good luck to all you all fellow "losers" and "soon to be's"....

Hey Arlies and Christine,

I get off at 1230, I can be at Keesler at around 1, I'll look for you, Arlies, will you bet at Dr Jenkins' office? Any clue as to what dept that is? General Surgery? hmm.. I cant stand that hospital, I feel like I'm in a maze every time I go there 
but I'll find ya.

Later Gators !
