A Picture Worth 1000 words...1st Goal DOWN!!
Thanks Jo.
Really it depends on the cir****tances. I don't see being able to get insurance before maybe this time next year. If I start having any complications, I may have to just have it removed prior. Otherwise the plan is to do it all at once.
As far as regain, that wouldn't be any more of a concern for me if I had to have it removed prior to revising that it is now, since I really have no restriction to speak of. I am however constantly concerned about regain since I know that w/o WLS that almost everyone regains. And I'm kind of in a position that I'm a WLS'er that's not a WLS'er. KNow what I mean? :-(

Great job. I remember getting into ONEderland. I am now down to 172, and in a size 12. I look forward to getting to my goal of 130 or 140, whichever works best. I do Zumba and weights five days a week, and that helps a lot.
Thanks, Michelle :) ya HAD to mention exercise though. I know, I know I need to try harder to routinely exercise,...that may be the only way for me to get loose of the rest of these pounds. sigh.
