MARCH UPDATE:

Don't really have any new pix, but as of today March 20, 2008 - 179lb. now really comfy in my size 12's!!!

I have permanently said goodbye to every piece of clothing I had in my "spare" closet where I had stashed everything over a size 14. NOW IT IS ALL GONE. I have my 14's just in case, wearing my 12's and am already starting to accumulate some size 10's for inspiration. I guess he** really has frozen over!!!

Still a work in progress!~

Wow! I just went back a couple of pages and got caught up on the pics. Everyone looks so good and so happy. Andree you are just glowing, and purplegirl you are just beautiful.

Hey Sheaross, I've cleaned out my closet too. It felt fantastic to be rid of all the plus sizes and the best part is filling it back up!

Ok, I think I've got this figured out. In honor of losing 100 pounds I'm posting a before and during photo. The during photo was from last month. I'm actually down another 10 pounds since then. WooHoo! Tummy Tuck here I come!

Becky I am STUNNED! You look beautiful! You lost more than 100 pounds in a little more than one semester of college for me! You are such an inspiration!

I wasn't sure what made me want to cry more...the new BEFORE pics or my GORGEOUS new pics. I decided if there were going to be tears, they were going to be tears of joy. Look at my face...I don't even look the same to me! I am normally not one to toot my own horn, but DAMN I am looking good! Can't wait for the Tummy Tuck, so that I feel this good about my WHOLE self.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
