June Post Ops!

Glad you are doing so well! I don't know if I would ever be brave enough to go through with it (let alone the money), but I am very glad insurance came through for you and you are happy with the results! You have a lot to be thankful for!

Yes the lower body lift is pretty rough. The muscle tightening is pretty amazing. I am taking my pain meds on schedule and definitely need them. I love the way my butt, tummy and thighs look now. I am so thankful my insurance paid and I get to be home resting. the drains are annoying but I had one for a full month after rny so I knew what to expect. I just feel weak and tired still but every day is a little better.

Today is a bit better with the pain. I am getting 2 of my four drains out Friday and hope the last two on monday. I am doing pretty well and was 118 this morning. I think I'll be around 115 when all the swelling is done. I can hardly believe I am under 120 lbs.

WOW!!! Under 120 - that is Fantastic! I am so incredibly happy for you. I hope you have an excellent Thanksgiving, you certainly have a lot to be thankful for!

Happy thanksgiving! ! I am certainly thankful for a lot. I love being at my goal, having my health back and the support I get from you all. This journey is hard but knowing the support is there has always helped.

Yesterday was my weigh in day. I still weigh once a week. I was 113 and for the first time in my life worried about losing too much. I don't want to go under 110 so I think I may need to up my calories a bit. Anyone who thinks this journey is easy is delusional. I hope all my junies are doing well!!

I know your feeling. I hit 147 this week. And I haven't been trying to lose anything. I think I'd be OK if I hit 145 but I'm getting pretty boney. Definately need to work on more muscle mass. Tomorrow is our last day of school. Totally looking forward to 2weeks off. Heading to Georgia for the holidays. My oldest is supposed to get married while we are there.

I am with you! I have dropped to 120, with a couple days at 119. I actually want to maintain closer to 125, so at least I am not worried about gaining over the next couple weeks!

[iamsoworthit 430]

It is nice not worrying about gaining. I feel so good right now. I bought my first pair of lucky jeans today. They are expensive but I felt confident knowing I am committed to maintaining this healthy lifestyle. It feels great walking into stores and not having people look at me like what are you doing in here? I have been a bit out of control shopping but darn my whole life I bought simply because it fit. Now I buy what I love.

I am having fun with clothes too! Tomorrow morning my turbo kick class is having a crazy pants party and I actually bought an outfit to wear! Now I just have to find the guts to pull it off - definitely outside my comfort zone!!

Just do it! And have a great time!

Good for you! Turbo kick sounds fun too! Is it like a kick boxing class? I used to take one at the ymca and loved it.

[Kristi 195]

I gotta get back to the gym in January. This is a crazy month!

[Baconville 578]

I won the contest! I guess being brave enough to get out of your comfort zone really works!

So what sort of crazy pants did ya wear?
