Hi everyone, Happy anniversary to you all too.  27th is the offical date for Shannon & I.  I'm doing and feeling great.  I've lost a total of 157 so far, and I've been stuck for over a month at 185, so I think this may be it for me.  I'm not complaining.  I'm a size 12 pants (down from a 30) and a L - XL shirt (down from 4 -5 X)  unbelievable!  My husband is scheduled for gastric via laproscopic on Friday the 14th, so that's exciting and nerveracking at the same time.  I think him having it will keep me in line and keep me healthy for the rest of my life.  This surgery was an eye opener to say the least.  Good luck to you all on your continued success, it's great to see you all doing well.  And to all of those reading this just beginning...just remember, Follow what the doctor says to do and you'll find success. 

WOW JESSICA YOUR DOING SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WELL THANK GOD . IM AT 183 AND STUC****IL I GET A FILL AND IM HAPPY WITH MY WEIGHT ALTHOUGH I HAVE A GOAL OF 150. ILL BE HAPPY WITH ANOTHER 15 POUNDS . ITS SO GOOD WE ALL CONECTED DOES ANY ONE KEEP IN TOUCH WITH SHELLI. I HOPE SHE IS DOING JUST AS WELL. TAKE CARE AND POST ONCE IN A WHILE TO KEEP IN TOUCH.  KEEP IT UP AND LET US KNOW ABOUT YOUR HUSBANDS JOURNEY.  AND DIDNT THE YEAR GO BY SO QUICK.. MSPARIS
