I have three bags of clothes that someone was giving away on freecycle and thought about you.  They are mostly 18's (which might be too big for you now) but thought I would ask you first.  Also mostly summer stuff.  But some really really nice clothes! Let me know if you want them.

I'm 18 shirts now. But not quite there in pants. But can put them up for springtime. . .

I saw somebody was giving them away and e-mailed. But didn't hear back. It may or may not have been the same person.

THANKS FOR THINKING OF ME!!!!!

Hi Southernmiss

I was checking to see how things are going with the lapband.  My surgery date is 12/10, I am a little nervous now (no i am scared) how much weight have you lost so far.  and are you glad you got the band.  any regrets. ANY PAIN.....

NO REGRETS!! Keep saying that over and over. NO REGRETS!!!! NO REGRETS!!!! NO REGRETS!!!!


Except one - Why in the WORLD did I not do this sooner???

Seriously, check out my blogs but basically I went from a 370 pound couch potato, who hated myself, was miserable, and was sick, sick, SICK with hypertension, water retention, and sleep apnea so severe I was in the ER.

I am now healthy and symptom free! I have lost 73 lbs and am now at 297 for the 1st time in 16 years. I'm loving my new hourglass shape.

Part of my journey was realizing that I was in a marriage that was killing me. And now that my divorce is final, I am starting to live my life for the very 1st time. I'm about to start taking dance lessons. I have guys paying attention to me. I'm happier with who I am. I don't embarrass my teenager anymore. LOL! And I started jogging 2 weeks ago with a goal of running my 1st 5K this spring.

Which doctor are you going to? because that makes all the difference in the world. I have an amazing support team from my doctor's office and would not be here today but for them. We have a support group meeting tomorrow night. PLEASE JOIN US!!!!

Thank you...I got to the point of wondering was I doing what was right..Or if I even deserve to be a normal size after being over weight all these years.  I know the fat me, but I will have to get to know the person that up under all these weight that is crying to get out. 

I would love to come to the class tomorrow...what time and were.


My doctor is Dr. Kenneth Vick of UMC.   He is a great person.  when my husband and I first met him, he set and listen to us until all of our questions was asked and we was sure on the procedure i want to do.
