   From my lowest weight in 2008.... I uploaded this picture in my OH Photo area on November 18 2008..... weighing 111 pounds...


I uploaded this photo this morning wearing the same outfit  and I weigh 121 pounds THIS MORNING and and trying to rock the similar do.... I love to rock my extensions... the clothes fit the same as I struggle to go back UP to my maintenance goal weight of 123 to 127 pounds....


 ... I am trying hard to maintain at 123-127 pounds but recent fret that spiraled into total panic and worry dropped me back to 119 lbs.... but the scare turned out to be unfounded on recent mammo... I was sooooooooooo happy I celebrated ...  and I thanked my beautiful sista Fini and others on here for keeping me in positive thoughts and encouragement and support and wishing me a miracle which I got ...

This is me this morning without my splint and with my beautiful girl ferret Petunia (I am the proud owner of 7 ferrets ... one of which is a rescue) and she LOVES HER VITAMINS...

 THANKS FOR ALLOWING ME TO SHARE.....


 Since my WLS .. as a matter of fact 3 months after because of recovering from a complication ... I have kept a digital journal ..A picture a Day ... Keeps the Pounds and Inches at Bay....




okay that would take forever in pages ... so I also made them in video which I have to update...

 ..."there is misery and joy in equal parts in this world. Misery will find us if we make ourselves a target. Joy is just waiting for us to acknowledge it. I find joy every day in all parts of my life and I just let it happen to me. Misery is there but I'm sure as hell not going to invite it in".....

You look absolutely fabulous!!! I am having my surgery on May 3 and would LOVE any eating/exercising tips you might have! If you don't mind me asking, have you had to have any plastic surgeries? You look like a model! I can only hope I have results like yours! Thanks for sharing!!!

 Congrats on your upcoming surgery .. sooooooooooooo happy for you ... woot woot only a couple more weeks to go ... May 3rd is right around the corner.  I had a modified brachioplasty and an insurance paid panniculectomy.  My pics are in my photo area here on OH.  There are also recipes shared on my blog and also feel free to join us at our OH Group Share-it! where several recipes and how to's from fashion to everyday living is shared ... the link is in my siggy line.

I swim, run. jog, do cycling, bikram. zumba, aqua zumba, zumba toning, weights and kick boxing.  To think just 4 years ago I could barely make it up a flight of stairs.  You will do wayyyyyyyy better than me at my age .... Congrats again on your upcoming surgery.
