Hugs, I am sorry for your lossEveryday I am grateful for the abundant life I live

Yes yes yes! 15 lbs ago my hubs could pick me up for the first time...my new mode of transportation nowadays lol

aww i teared up...aren't children marvellous (sometimes lol)

bwahaha! I imagined your dog saying "oh hell naw!"lol

So it's a half nsv/ half sv...I'm only 20 lbs from a "normal" weight/bmi...I don't remember the last time I could say that. It's funny because I am really quite pleased with my weight now, my personal goal is just 3 pounds more, and now I am a bit curious...just a nice "dilemma" to have I just realized I'm posting in the wrong forum...I just saw nsvs and got excited lol.

See you then!

170 this morning. ..not goal but a loss! thanks

171 and holding! ty!

omg i'm stoked for spring!!!

this made me smile so hard! i can just imagine the person being like, no maam, this is not you...you can't fool me! i would have been so tickled!

171...lol so I'm thinking my goal might be unrealistic!! i just wanna see a 6 after my 1! and apologies for the lateness...thank you

totally agree with loving yourself leading to success...no shade to some on here, but i read some talking about hating their "former" selves...that's still your body that's worthy of dignity and respect. losing weight doesn't solve that hatred...loving yourself does.

lol i remember trying on an old navy 18 thinking what a great fit...tried on same size months later and it was terrible. turned out my 5'5" self was fitting 18 long (so probably a 20 reg lol)Sent from my SM-N910F using the BariatricPal App haha...my a$$ is taking on planetary proportions now that the rest of me has shrunken! but before my surgery, i found i got away with 18 long when i should have been 20 regular.

lol this is awesome. took me back to growing up in a large family...and i was never in the middle. now i'm going to try it cause i can! Sent from my SM-N910F using the BariatricPal App

Did you say yes?No... I didn't because there's a fireman pursuing me since before my surgery and if and when I decide to go out it will most likely be him first. It's a men in the uniform thing ???? in the meantime I will enjoy getting healthier and enjoy the side effects of looking sexier ???? Update: have started accepting invites for drinks now. First date of course was with the fireman. It was lovely and he has talked about a second date. Also, I had coffee date with another gentleman whom I find very attractive this week. Both these guys have known me since before my surgery. And I had a great time conversing and laughing with both. get it girlfriend! Sent from my SM-N910F using the BariatricPal App
