Wow I sooooo need to update my profile picture!!! people do a double take on my drivers lic., time to update that too.
I'm doing well hope you all are fine, my weight today was 167.4 still losing but not so noticeable anymore. Still I'm happy and would do this again in a heartbeat, I don't know why I waited so long.
I'm comfortable in my own skin....... could be because it fits like a comfortable pair of PJ's ,lol, I have always said I didn't want plastics but I may need to rethink that.
It has almost been a year since surgery, time has really flown by, the first 6 months or so I really was not quite myself, my body took a little while to adjust to the changes but these last few months have been a blast, I have more energy, and really want to participate in life, I don't think I realized how much I gave up to my weight, but I refuse to go back there, I'm glad I took my life back from myself!
I was just checking in hope you all are doing well, I see lots of new people on the board, and that's good, I'm glad you all have the strength to take that first step, its always the hardest ones. but if I can do this YOU CAN TOO! don't be afraid to ask for help, we've all been there and we've all needed help and encouragement at times. Thanks to all of you who gave me support along the way,

Well Ive made it 10 months!!! and its been a ride, but a fairly easy one, My current weight is 170.0 down 127lbs from my highest wt. And I could not be more pleased. I take NO meds except my multi vit with iron, and vit D my calcium was high so I don't take it any more, do to a history of kidney stones in my family. but I'm doing fine no complaints from this OVERWEIGHT girl. my family keeps asking when I will stop losing, I just say when my body is ready, I'm still losing but at a much slower rate than before. I was a size 2XL top and a 24 in jeans, I now wear a size Sm to med top and 12 to 14 in jeans my dresses are a size 6, I cant believe it!!! but Im happy and yes I do LOVE myself. best thing I have ever done for my self . I can eat a little more than at first but not much, I eat when I'm hungry and I eat what I want...... its working for me. Dr said she did not want me to feel like I was on a diet, and I don't. my blood work is good, and I feel great, after all that's ALL that matters. just wanted you all to know I'm fine and doing well. hope you all are doing good at what ever stage you are in, and I wish you all success, thanks for being there for me I truly could not have done this with out you..........hugs...........Connie
