I AM OFFICIALLY DOWN 35LBS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Below the 200lb mark. I feel like it is gone for good this time.  With this poundage off, the benefits already are immeasurable.  ***First of all, I could never have walked like this before the weight loss. It was too much stress on my knee that had the torn meniscus....too painful. The pain in my knee has been alleviated a great deal. ***I no longer get winded like I did. ***My Pupster is getting really buff which will prolong her life. ***Forces me out of the house into the public. I used to slither in and out of the house because I was too self conscious to socialize. I overall feel better about myself. I'm dealing a lot with head hunger issues, but seeing the results on the scale really gave me a boost mentally. Day Of Surgery Weight - 229lbs.                            Current - 194lbs.                             Total     -   35lbs. This is by far the best Birthday Present I could have given myself. ( June 5th ) You all had a hand in it... thanks. Diane

 Congratulations!!! It must feel so good.  Happy Birthday to you early since I won't be on too much next week - I go in on your birthday. It is great when you start to see the benefits right away.  It motivates you more.  Keep up the great work!!!!

Thank you girls. Thank you very much.( Said in an Elvis voice! ) Yes, Brit, the head hunger is a killer sometimes....but  I have been 100% true to WLS which is something I never could have done in the past. Take Care~~ Diane
