Hi Susan good to see another January 2006 boarder here. I started lurking around here about two and a half months ago and started posting about a month ago. It's a good board with good people. Hazel

Hi Suzan and Welcome to the Grad's Board! Tracy B 328/150 5'9"

Hi Suzan, I had my surgery on 1-20-06. I have lost 104 pounds, now 171. I was 191 the first week of November and was only losing a couple pounds a month. Then all of a sudden I started losing again. So dont worry, I think we all do this. I lost 11 pounds all of a sudden and am down more since, so I'm feeling pretty good about it. I know i could get serious and get the next 20 pounds off if I would really stick to the rules. I lost inches like crazy and cant believe I am in a size 12 at this weight. I was at my surgeons last thursday and he took pics and is submitting them to see if they will ok the surgery. Have a hernia and am axious to be rid of the excess skin. Did you see the message about the doc who will be on to answer any questions about this. Or any surgery... Marlene
