Finally!! Under 350!!
I was so shocked when I got on the scale and found I'm now 349! I NEVER in my wildest dreams thought I'd be down this much. It's something I don't believe. I catch myself looking at my reflection in a buildings glass and keep wondering who is that?? I got a pants set recently and thought, oh that's not going to fit. I tried it on this past week and it fit perfectly, actually the top was too large. I loved it through, I've never had something dressy like this. 10 years ago it was so hard to find dressy clothes in larger sizes. I would have the same problem with shoes. Today I put on my 13W dress shoes and they were falling off. We had to make an emergency pit stop to get some shoes before my support meeting. I was thrilled when I could get an 11W! Not to meantion they are the type of shoe that are narrow in the top part of your foot. I've NEVER been able to wear a shoes like this. I was trying all the shoes on and didn't want to leave! Kenneth had to pull me away. Just for fun I slipped on a heel to see how it looked on one foot. I'm thankful EVERYDAY I had this surgery. My life is as different as night and day. People tell me all the time they don't know who I am, I look completely different and feel like I whole new person.
Kenneth's been also doing VERY good. I'm very proud of him, he's down 50pounds in 3 weeks! I'm watching him melt and we are both celebrating our weight loss together. The surgery has made us even closer. He now knows and understands how I've felt, just one of those things you can't explain to someone pre-op, etc.
I've been working a lot lately with my new job. I absolutely LOVE my job. Right now it's a part time job, but I've been putting a lot into it cause it doesn't seem like I'm working when I am. Thanks for those of you who have asked about Kenneth and I.

Hey Amy & Ken! 
Congrats to you both, you've come a long way baby! Just wait until one day you get out of the shower, look in the mirror and you see a thinner you! No big boobs! or Booty. You won't believe it is really you. I know, every time I look in the mirror, I'm amazed at how much weight I have lost. Started out at 310 when I started this journey, 276lbs at surgery and now I am down to 191lbs as of today, gone from a size 26/28 to a 16/18. You'll be there before you know it. Keep up the good work and take care! ki.
