Awww, thank you guys so much. It is great to get all of this support. My daughter (the one that got married) gets so mad because people think I'm her sister instead of her mom.

I LOVE IT!!!!!

You look fantastic! Seeing pictures and reading stories and comments gives me hope that the sleeve will be the right choice for me someday after I get thru the insurance requirements for approval.
Isn't it wonderful that people mistake you for your daughter's sibling? She should be VERY proud of you!

Mom, you look like a little doll!!!!!

I had set a goal to get to 299 by my birthday, April 18th. On April 2nd, I weighed 302, soooo... You would think it would be a snap to lose the next three pounds in SIXTEEN DAYS... RIGHT??? Girl, you know that scale never moved on little bit!!!! Finally, when I woke up on my birthday, the scale said 299.3!!! I was glad that the scale finally moved, but I wanted to thow it through the window! Grrr!!!!!

To me, you look so good!! What an inspiration to the rest of us!!

Ohhhh thank you so much! I was the same way. I have been sitting at 147-148 for three blessed weeks. When I hit 147 THREE WEEKS ago, I thought woo hoo, I'm gonna make my goal and probably be under. NOT!!!! It just wasn't going to happen. Oh well, it's just a number. I will eventually get there and so will you. Just keep on keeping on!

Behind every success is effort...Behind every effort is passion...Behind every passion is someone with the courage to try.

Thanks so much Carmelita!!!! I went with my daughters to the batchelorette party to have a drink with them and I got more action than the young single girls. It was a hoot!!!

I've been hovering at 147-148 for three weeks. This damn stall. Thanks so much for the support. I'm gonna check out that maintenance board. See you there!!!
