1 month out pics

Thanks Danielle. I appreciate your kindness. It is great to be on the loser bench! Melissa

I can see a difference. You're doing great. Keep it up. Mare

Thanks Mare. You are doing great too. One day this summer we will have to get together and go over to the beach . Oh and we might be moving to Hampstead. We put an offer in on a house yesterday! Yeahhhhhh! Altho I will miss the beach . Thanks again  Melissa

Hey Melissa... you can see the wt loss in your pics.   I know I have lost 40 lbs now and am in smaller clothes, everyone else sees it but I still don't.  Well, eventually the difference will be so great, we have to see it! Take care and keep up the great work! pam

Thanks Pam! It is so hard to see it in ourselves and even tho my Easter dress was a size smaller I think in my head I just assumed it "ran big" LOL Oh well, maybe when I see those 28's or 26's I will feel like I can tell the dif. Congrats on the 40lbs! Melissa

You're looking great Melissa and wait till your 2 month pics.  You'll really see a difference then.

WOW, I can TOTALLY see a difference!! You are officially shrinking
As everyone else said, you can see the difference in your tummy!!  Just wait another month and you may be pleasantly surprised when looking at before and afters. CONGRATULATIONS on your success so far, sound like you are doing Fantastic-O!!!

Thanks Jami. I dont know why but when I read your post it brought me to tears. I am such a sap! I think that I am just so surprised at the outpouring of genuine support here and I know that I never could have lost the weight with out the surgery. I cant wait to be able to chase my kids down the beach or just play with them and not be so winded and worn out! This is truely a miracle and I am very thankful for it so far! Thanks again Melissa

Congratulations, Melissa!  I can totally see a difference in you!  You ought to be so proud of yourself!  Keep hanging in there!

Thanks Mommy2C. It is nice to hear these encouraging words. It makes the road seem less bumpy! Thanks alot! Melissa
