Hi, I just wanted to say I went to the doctors office yesterday and as of Dec. 19, I have lost 57 pounds. I could have lost more but I am not drinking as much water as I should. But I will do better. Well I want to tell you Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. I will be thinking of you and praying you will have a great year coming up. I am so excited to keep loosing weight and getting more self confidence. Well enough rambling on. Take good care of yourself. Keep in touch. Wendy

Hi there, how is it going? Well I am still praying for you. Hope all is well. Well I am dwon 53 pounds in 6 weeks. I do not go back to the doctor until January. I am not weighing myself until then because I do not want to use any other scales. I am doing well... except Saturday I was helping move furniture and I think I pulled something. I called the doctor and He said to wait and see if the pain goes away in a few days. I hope so, if not he said it could become hernitated (oops!spelling). Well let me know how things are going with you. Wendy

CROW!!!!! You are an inspiration to me. I am a big ol boy and had the wls on 10-9-01. I started out at 450 lbs and have lost 84 lbs so far. My wife laughs at my pants and calls me a "RODEO CLOWN". She says I should donate my pants to them!!. I also have to use suspenders to hold my pants up and the underware are worse!!! I am not complaning, just laughing at myself. My wife also had this surgery on 06-28-01 and has lost 76 lbs. She gets frustrated because I (and most men) lose faster than women. I tell her is is because I have more to lose than her, I started out at a higher weight. We have been married since 1966 and got fat together now we are getting slim together. BLESS YOU AND KEEP UP THE GOOD FIGHT!! (LA MESA, CA.)

Hi, I also had surgery on the 19th. I have been praying for you and hope your new journey is going the way you wanted. How is your recovery coming along? Please let me know. I have lost 35 pounds so far. I feel real good. The doctor released me to go back to work on Monday, I can't wait, I drive a school bus and I miss the kids very much. I am also able to eat solid foods now. I hope you are doing ok. Have a great day. Wendy
