Hi everyone!

Guess I am the early bird today.  140.6.  Weight staying stable and have had a bit of Halloween candy but nothing crazy.

Working again today.  I have a new student starting a rotation with me today so that's always an interesting day.  It adds a bit more stress but I do love teaching!

Yesterday I covered a clinic that I don't work in too often.  Saw a woman I hadn't seen for a while and she told me she's a bit worried about my weight and my neck is too skinny!!  Never sure what to say to that stuff since I've never expected it in this life.  I just assured her I am at a healthy weight and I'm working to stay there.

Signed up for another 5k on Thanksgiving morning!  Can't wait!

Hope you all have a wonderful day!  Keep on keeping on!

Heather :)

  Highest Weight: 268 pounds.  Surgery Weight 248 pounds.  Current Weight 142 pounds.  VSG 8/24/15 with Dr. Havaleshko

I hardly ever need pain meds. Didnt even fill when I had my gallbladder out and wouldnt you know that was the most painful surgery of them all and I had to call in for an Rx after all.That and kidney stones!

Generally that is true for me to --- not even otc meds.  But, needed them for LBL, around the clock!  Very different experience!  Glad you are doing well :)

What? No boob picture! LOL!

Oh, I should see if I can find a pic of me after my eye job. I had both uppers and lowers done. (I actually just wanted lowers done, but the very wise PS urged me to do both upper and lowers. As I've said, best decision!) You look positively magnificent compared to me. I think having the lowers done really adds to the gruesome quality post surgery. I had black eyes and swelling that was simply beyond belief!

125, yoga'd yesterday but poor steps

There have been some great NSV's on the board lately -- so inspiring.  Also some struggles....we are all here for you!

Stay strong, family!
