Great job!!

Thanks Odie I really needed to hear that

Glad to have you here. What a wild ride to go on with your spouse. Good luck and ask any questions you need to... we are all here to help

I looked down one day and had crossed my legs and hadnt even realized it. Hadnt been able to in years. Brought tears to my eyes. Stupid I know but made my whole day...hell my whole week!!!

congrats on your weight loss so far as well as the impending birth of your baby!! What an exciting time for you.

awww I wish I could have taped it. I'll see if it re-runs tonight. I saw a picture of Lisa and she looks great

congrats!!! You are in for the ride of your life!!!

Hey girlie, welcome to the boards!!

research research research and patience is key!!!!!

I know what your are saying... I miss 1 or 2 days on the boards and bam tons of new people. Its good tho word is getting out and means more people are transforming their lives. Sounds like you are doing great!!! I still have a hard time eating chicken too... 7 months out. Dipping it in something is the only way.

I have been afraid to clean out my closet for that reason. I have like 8 things that I rotate and wear. The rest are just huge pieces of clothing hanging there to make it look like I have clothes. My workout clothes hang on me, my tshirts look like dresses. I have 49 more pounds to go and I just dont want to buy anything.... I know I can go to consignment and thrift stores but hate to.....

If they are a good bariatric surgeon with a good staff they should have a check list that you go thru. First call your insurance company and see what they require. If you are having tests now you need to make sure they carry over to next year. Because if you are required to have a 6 months supervised diet you will be into next year for your surgery date. You have to be proactive and the first place to start is with your insurance company.

way to go girlie!!! Such a great feeling!!! Congrats

rest, sip, walk...words to live by!!!

welcome to the boards we are glad to see you here.

I have screwed up something with my weight loss ticker and cant seem to get it back. Plus I hate the way it puts 3 decimal points :-(

only thing I can suggest is to send a pm to Alex and maybe he can direct you. I use my Iphone and laptop with no problems

have you tried chewing some gas x. That worked for me

I agree with what everyone has said so far. Its so important to get ahold of that mind!!! We have used food for everything to comfort us when we are sad happy indifferent. Have to find a new friend to be by our side. Its a hard tough battle but one that can be won!!

Hey Butterfly... welcome to the group. I had rny in Feb of this year and am down 125 lbs. It has been the greatest most rewarding experience of my life. This group is a wonderful source of support. No question is too stupid to ask. We are all here for you!!!

Good job Lil' Don!!!

You are in the home stretch now. You will look back on this wait (weight) as just a small little pit stop on to a better smaller you!!!

It was about 2 weeks when I started to get my energy back!! Hang in there

Congrats girlie, I know you want this more then anything.

Ok ladies... Starting to jog but need a good sports bra. Recommendations?? Also do u get a smaller size to hold those babies down?
