Well i certinally know how my family reacted, my mother cried and said she was proud of me for making the choice to better my life, my sisters 2 of them know and are supportive, and my other sister dosent know yet, how have your familys reactions been?

this month has sucked for me... all ready for septembers challeng to get back on track lol

im weighing in early because im starting the process of packing and moving on wed and ill be very busy i weighed in at 192.9 woo hoo down a lil more

other than a bit of gas pain it wasent bad at all, now getting my tonsills out, that was a diffrent story lmao

im right their with yea my goal was 185 as well for the end of the month im sitting at 193

hmm maybe they sould put the show on netflix lol

is that show still on i havent seen it in ever?

chceking in 193.8 wooh whoop!!! little bit at a time but its going down, keep up the great work ladies!!

sitting here just over 2 years out from surgery and wondering when do things truly change???? ( on the Inside) Dont get me wrong i love my band im sitting at 124 pounds lost and i work out 5 days a week. my first year with the band was deffinetly a learning experiense i lost 60 pounds i could have lost more had i listend to my body, now that i understand what im doing im averaging 8-10 pounds a month. I dont look at my self and see a diffrence everybody says omg you look fantastic, and others say i dident recoginize you, but i dont feel diffrent, ive went from 320 pounds to my current 196, from a size 24 to current 14. But inside im still me struggling to figure out who i am and what i want out of life, losing weight dosent fix your problems, you dont magically wake up and your weight is gone and your happy. You need to make those changes for your self, and figure out what makes you happy, i know im not near where i need to be, but one day at a time, and hopefully along the way ill start to feel better about my self!!! well enough with debbie downer lol happy friday everybody!!

well checking in still 196 after 2 weeks upped my excersize so hopefully gonna see the benefits soon!!

i knoiw how your feeling everybody at work comments at my weight loss and i just wanna scream cause im stuck at 196 and i wanna see 189 sooo bad, !!!
