4 month update with pictures (as promised)

[NtvTxn 1,262]

Hey Sleeve Family,

I know ive been missing in action lately but with holidays, a new job, wedding planning, working and going to school full time my time is so much shorter! I did not forget to update you all with pictures! I still love each of you, I have just been so busy- I will try to peek back in here at least once a week. I have been attending my monthly support group meetings (which I am enjoying)!

I was sleeve on 9/15/09 for those that dont know. I started out around 248 lbs, as of this morning, I weigh 188 lbs! Woo-Hoo! (The guy in the photos is my future husband). I am still about 40 lbs away from goal (I think)

I hope everyone is doing great!

Shonda,

You look great, what an inspiration. You had surgery on my birthday!! I'm scheduled for surgery on June 11th - I cannot wait!! I'll attend the seminar on April 6th!! I'm ready to get this show on the road. Watching all y'all keep me so "up" and so motivated!!! Keep up the good work, and your fiancee is a cutie!!

Shanda, you look wonderful and I agree your husband-to-be is a hottie. I too viewed lots of youtube videos - thecitydoll as well as kellawanda, fierybutterflywings, gasticsleevereviews. I found them interesting, informative and the weigh-loss visuals were inspirational. However, I will say that the friendship and support here is the best. Best of luck on you upcoming wedding and keep us posted.

Thanks for sharing your pics! I can't tell you how motivating it is for all of us to see those. It helps us to stay the course. Thanks again.
