A few pics, finally!
I finally figured out how to do this, sort of. If you go to my profile & click on the small pic of me in the Yankees hat, you'll see how I looked "Before." And that was 22 lbs. lighter than when I had my ORIGINAL WLS, the lap-band. Above is me -50, post RNY.
I've had several WOW moments lately, including fitting snugly into 10P suits & loosely into 12P. Hard to believe I might hit the single digits!
This isn't easy, I lose slower than most (o.k., all!), but I'm getting there.
I've been working really long hours, I missed the Nov. Mercy support group, and I will miss the Dec. one too, flying to Florida for business the day before. I didn't realize how much I need the group until I've missed 3 in a row because of work. So, thanks to all of you for being my support group!
Someday, I'll be able to download a new avitar photo.... 
Hi Karen,
You look awesome! Keep up the great work.
If you are availbe the 3rd Tuesday evening of each month, feel free to come to my meeting. Email me for more details. One can never get too much support!

Thank you, ladies. Rosemary, I love reading your posts not only for your friendship & support, but I just love that avitar! Hmmm, Georgous Garber Girlies/Guys...has a nice ring to it. But what rhymes w/Holiver...hottties?? Yey, Lisa, you're now a Holover Hottie! And as my daughter would say, Holiver's a hottie himself. I wonder if they read our posts--they must think we're nuts! But, I digress. I think I'll have to hop the Southern State for your meeting, Maryellen & Karen. I can't order, though, because I keep kosher. Can I still come?? Jane, my dear, you're turning into MY inspiration. I'm so proud of us! xoxo,
