Little late -- but thank you all!

Yesterday was my 6 month surgi-versary and I'm down 76 lbs. I'm 8lbs from my surgeon goal and about 30 from my personal goal which is just into normal bmi range-- for 1st time since I was 3 months old! (not exaggerating)

I don't post a lot but do check in frequently. So many of your posts are so inspiring and really keep me going and focused. I just wanted to drop a note to thank you all for going through this with me. Really couldn't have gotten this far without you!

I haven't gotten a good "after" picture lately but I'm going on a cruise next week (after a few no-vacation years because the thought of a beach or shorts in public didn't sit well with me) and will be sure to post a good one when I return.

Thanks again!

Where r u going on ur cruise? I'm also going to Alaska on Carnival on May 7th out of Seattle. This will be my 4th cruise since being banded (ever, for that matter!). This will be the first 1 that I haven't had restriction, however (had all my Fluid removed 2 weeks ago following a slip - revising soon) and I'm a little happy and a little scared at that thought. I'm not trying to lose while waiting for my reivison (most likely late June), but I'm trying not to gain also.

Have a fun trip! Looking forward to pics!

I live in Boston so all winter I felt like I was in Alaska! Warmer location for me --Disney cruise to the Bahamas with the kids. Enjoy Alaska!
