buckeye_girl40 203 Posted August 22, 2012 I'll admit that at first turning 40 was kinda depressing, but now 40's is looking pretty awesome ! Spent my 20's having kids, 30's being overweight and depressed and now will be rockin my sleeve at 40.... life doesn't get any better than this! October can't get here quick enough. To those who have had surgery, congratulations... and to the ones getting ready good luck. 2 CantBelieve_IdidIit! and CNTWT2BMINIME reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ready?Going.. 10 Posted August 22, 2012 Halloween 2012 will mark my 47th birthday..........and I am loving every minute of it!! It boggles my mind when I hear people be-moaning turning 40. I've got to say the 40s are fantastic. My hubby and I married when we were 19, spent our 20s having our 2 sons and 2 daughter, our 30s were spent chasing after those 4........and now @ the ripe ole age of 47 our youngest is a senior in high school!! It is so marvelous to be old enough to have the money you want to play with and young enough to enjoy the game!!! 40s ROCK! 1 Newbeginning reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
isajck 229 Posted August 23, 2012 If you don't mind me asking, how much weight have you lost? No problem but I have no idea how much weight has been lost. I decided not to be a slave to the scale in the beginning. I joke that at this point I am just trying to survive and thrive. I visit the surgeon next week so I will have an official number then. Shall report it back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marie bella1968 21 Posted August 25, 2012 I am 41 ... Somewhere between 8 - 18 pounds from goal (still deciding to be somewhere between 125 and 135). Life is good today. Went to a car show with my little MINI and took Best in Class. My youngest son (8) came with me & we had a nice day together. My husband was able to meet up with us right before the awards were given so he was able to share in that with us. Tonight we are planning on pizza (one slice for me!) and a movie. Can life get any better??? do u mind if i ask you whaat was ur starting weight Marie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
