Just wanted to reintroduce myself here.  I used to check this board every day until I bought a new computer and lost the link.  You all know how hard it is to find this board!  Hidden deep in the OH world!  Well, I putzed and here I am!  I am almost 6 months out and 143 lbs down.  WOW!  Life has certainly been interesting on this journey!  I would have never thought in May of last year that I would being starting to run!  Also shopping for size 40 pants instead of 58s.  I am forever grateful for my RNY!

You look awesome, congratulations!  Welcome back also.
I'm getting LapBand (I think) in May 2009....going through the process now, but having some second thoughts...

You are cute ;)

Heya Jamie!

Thank you for the nice compliments!  Feel free to message me about your second thoughts.  I had RNY so much different than the band, but I have to tell you that the weight loss that I have experienced has really changed my life so much.  I was going to do this 3 years ago but got scared.  All I can say is I wish I would have done this three years ago, but glad I have it now.  I look forward to hearing from you, handsome!

Hey there handsome :)  I'm so glad to see you back :)  You are doing wonderfully and i look forward to hearing more from you :)  *HUGE BEAR HUGS*

Welcome back! I was wondering what happened to you. I just checked out your pics and you just changed completely over the past couple of months. You do look like a totally new person. Glad to have you back. -- Tom
