Agreed, Lissa! I'm trying to stay good. I've basically lost all my clothes and most of my shoes. I've had to purchase 3 pair of work pants, 2-pairs of jeans and some tops. I blew past the 18 and basically the 16. Don't think I'll be buying for a bit until I hit the next round of my clothes falling off again.

Jeni, I've gone down from a 9 to an 8-1/2, but it was the widith of my foot that moved from a WW or W to a Med. The narrow stuff I can't do.

So far, that has been one of my favorite NSV!

Congrats to you! You're doing a great job.

I loved that one too. I just changed out my necklace (which was way to long) to the original one I bought with my diamond pendant. It fits! WOO HOO! Oh yeah, I had a link removed from my watch today too!

You look amazing!

Oh yeah! I will love it when that happens! Congrats!

Great Job!

Congrats! I'm about 11 lbs from wonderland, but total weight loss at 99lbs! Go away that one lb!!!

LOL...that was hilarious!

Great job! you look awesome!

Great job! Congrats!

YAY!! I'm close...just 15-lbs from there myself! Let the party begin!

ME too! I noticed that a few weeks ago and thought....what the heck, why are my knees hurting. Then I realized it was my bones! Love that pillow I put between my knees at night now. :-)

AWESOME! You go girl!

Today I had a call from my health nurse from my insurance company. After reviewing everything and giving explaination about food, meds, health she said something the made me think. She stated how happy I sounded. She was right. I am happy. Happy to be healty. Happy to have almost 100-lbs off my body in the last year. Happy to clean out my closet (shoes and clothes). Happy when I walk. Happy when I talk. Happy...Period. But then she had me thinking. I realized over the last few week how many people tell me I look so happy. One of my co-worker stated, "you're looking great, but I cannot believe the change in your personality". I asked him what he meant by that. He said, you just looked so down for so long...just plain unhappy. I never realized that my weight made me so unhappy. I never realized the outward apperance I was showing people. I always thought I was happy, but I guess my face and my actions provided a different oppinion. I now realize I hid from life for the last few years. I even lost my best friends because of it a few months ago. They haven't even seen my transformation, but they know I had the surgery. I wonder if they would even understand. They took it personally that I did want to go. In closing your sleeve will rock your world and bring about many transformations you never knew you had. I'm grateful for the support and guidence I have recieved both on this forum and in life. Thank you all for being so great! Love to All, Cheles! Wanted to post a pre-op pic from last June.

Thanks, Diva! It truly is a journey.
