Nykee 13 Posted October 22, 2007 Hi People... maybe you remember me, maybe not.. I have not come to this site for a while.. I got a little reminder in my email. lol I just wanted to tell about how I have been.. I have lost a bit over 100 pounds... its still off.. Recently I lost 15 pounds in two months, but that was a month ago.. I gave up on candy, that ONE thing, just candy, THAT was how the 15 pounds came off, obviously, as I had not been loosing any weight in a long time.. The band keeps me maintained... I KNOW if I got an unfill (I gag or 'puke' daily)....... I would gain it all back.... But its done with loss... ITS ON ME NOW, and we will see if I take this 15 pound loss and do more with it... My band is fine.. I had an endoscopy... its been 2 and 1/2 years. I am still 300 pounds.. so I DO wish I could have a mini gastric bypass.. BUT, I appreciate my band and all it has done so far... MY NON scale VICTORIES are OMG AMAZING.. I was in a wheele chair two years ago... NOW I walk... Thats the big one.. Anyway... thanks for all your support, this is a really nice site.

PCGIRL 0 Posted October 22, 2007 Nykee: You look wonderful! I think this site must be helping you as you seem to let it all out here. that's great! I just love hearing about the Non scale Victories. I have surgery tomorrow! Wow! I have at least 100 lbs to lose. I know this is a tool and I will have just the beginning of the journey to deal with for a while, but one day I will be celebrating, as so many do here!
