Janean- Thanks, I know there is a difference, honestly I do but sometimes I still see myself as that person in the preop picture, I don't know this new person yet, it's all very strange to me. Janet

Hey Janet My surgery twin!!! I can sooooooo relate. I totally still see myself as huge and find myself having to remind myself. Laundry is always fun because I am like who's laundry am I doing. Very weird. I am in therapy and working on this because there is no way I will mess this up but everyday is a challenge. The whole skin issue definitely does not help at all!! I guess the old addage "things take time" applies here. Glad to see you posting and congrats on the 140#!!! Take care, Tina

Tina!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just started therapy last week actually because of these feelings. I needed to figure out why I felt like I was trying to sabotage myself. I have come too far to not have this work!! Yes skin is a wonderful thing isn't it? I just bought a strapless dress for a wedding and at first was like man oh man, my arms are awful, but ya know what, I do not care! I think it's almost like a testament of how far I have come!!!!!!!! I will post a picture of me in the dress, but the weddings are not until October. You look GREAT by the way, keep up the great work!!! I need to send in new pics of me for my profile, I look so different from the current one. Janet

Hi Janet Congrats On The weight Loss ! What a wonderful weird feeling that must be ! I can't wait to have that feeling ! That is one of the things I keep thinking about .....wearing my wedding band again! I have gained so much weight that I can't even wear mine . Have'nt for at least 10 yrs now ! I had it resized twice in 20 yrs and I just said no more ! I do wear it on a chain around my neck though ! After surgery and the weight loss then I will get it resized for the last time ! Yeah ! YOU GO GIRL !!!!!!! Take Care Carol

Thank you CArol. It will come, promise. It is a very nice feeling!!!! Janet
