Topic: clothes shopping!!!
I am sooo happy to say I now can wear size 18 curvy-fit jeans!!!!!! 4 more sizes to go until my goal of a size 10/12 is met!!!
To think that at the begining of my journey I couldnt even wear jeans. I only wore skirts- any many hand made because I couldnt find a size to fit. I wore size 7x shirts... now I wear XL!!!
My size 24s that I had bought right after the stomach surgery were incredibly loose.. and even my belt wasn't doing a great job of holding them up so I ventured off to Walmart after work to see if I could get a cheap pair of jeans to replace these. I tried a pair in 22... tooo big, then 20s... still too big in the waist! These fit a lil snug on my legs, well because of my leg skin, but very very comfortable! I am happy dancing in my skinny jeans! LOL.
Just thought I would share :)
Happy losing!

Thanks Doris!
Our bodies plateau at various weights and I know those numbers are going to keep going in the right direction for you. I know I was stuck for about 2 weeks. Now with the addition of extra exercise, the numbers have started to go back down again. You can do it! I believe in you.

Topic: RE: Sacré Coeur Hospital Card...
Hi Ada,
I was able to do the blood work here because Cathou's a nurse and all but I also went to do an EKG so I don't think it has something to do with age but maybe more something to do with our weight and the risk associated with having larger patients. I don't think I did any more tests but then again, I have trouble remembering what I did last week. Check my blogs or posts. I'm sure I put something up regarding pre-op tests.
