awesome! You look great!

The part of your journey that inspires me most is how you lost so much weight before the surgery.

It's really no different. I eat almost identically, only ...well, less. I malabsorbed as much as 30% of fat since surgery as well at some point-- less now--- but since I am a lo-fat eater anyway that's been of limited use. Surgery doesn't stop compulsive eating. That I am still doin' alone, I'm afraid. The first 68 pounds was actually the easiest part. Go figure! -S.

OMG!!! You look great, and I understand the arm issue too. I haven't lost anywhere near that much weight and have jiggly arms....but I have one consolation, I have a friend who through health issues and depression has lost from 135 to 108 and her boobs and arms and more jiggly than mine. Go figure. I think her's is because she never moves off the couch and if she does it is to go sit in front of the computer. LOL
