Hollirrose, that is awesome success! are such a motivation!

....maybe its just me....first attempt on Atkins 67pounds.....next hundred attempts 10-20...plus triple back...

Hazelsmrf, plus once you have done Atkins, the next time you start it takes longer to lose the weight.

Glad all is well.

Exactly, lht my thoughts precisely, no more 2nothing for after 3 babies back to back, and the youngest one being six and the oldest ten, and no more to come....its time.......

Lht, that 170-76...looks nice...im 5'3 and have set my goal at 155/58. My husband says to keep some thickness, which is cool with me....my surgery isnt unitl feb. and I weigh 237 now..

Amytug and icon23, I am still considering, Dr. Almanza, my iniatial choice, because of his years and years, of experience I have researched him for two years, I actually once had already paid my deposit it with him, now there I said.....wheeew

Lht, how tall are you? You look great to me....what your starting weight.

Thanks tallysfunny, I appreciate all the info.

Today I find myself not wanting to set any upcoming goals until I have surgery. I have already put gauze, tape, deodorant in my bag so far......Also been reading gastricsleeve.com blogs lot of great information there. Just so ready for the losers bench!

It makes me feel better to have those that can relate! Im just going on and on in my head about this surgery! Im just wanting Christmas to get, here new years and surgery...I just imagine what life will be like.....lifting up my stomach and holding it flat as I can to imagine what i'll look like. Oh sleevie sisters, one thing this is teaching me is patients.......love ya girls, I am not alone....and it feels good.

Astephenson, then you feel me....I usually set my goals up and make a check list of things to accomplish, but ALL I am focusing on is surgery, aurgery, surgery, I vowed not to buy one article of clothing, until im losing.....I dont even talk about it with my husband....im just thinking about it day amd night and noon......because I have dealt with my weight my entire life, this is a dream come true....to have something I have never known. This is a reward that I have hoped for....

Nicolanz, I still consider using him at times, he is an experienced surgeon.....

Im just sooo ready.

One last one...I will never miss not being able to really cross my legs..like a real lady!.....I will never miss lycra drawers, because they sure aren't panties...and flapping noises of my stomach when I bend over to pick up something....or my butt eating my dresses...okay thats it!...for now!

2.I am NEVER GOING TO the big hump of fat on my butt and the back of my neck 2. I cannot wait for new panties, better sex and wearing a dress that doesn't look like maternity.
