Hi! from an old friend

Hi Pielet! Nice to see you around the boards.......although you really are half the size since you last posted. You are doing super dee duper.

Take care & aloha,

michelle

Thanks, Michelle! Good to see you, too! Did anyone else get the Barney reference? I guess only those of us with little kids!

Hello! Wow you look awesome!! Like a totally different person. Way to go! And I think you have done amazing! Sounds like life has been pretty stressful for you and I am sorry....sending good vibes and thoughts out that things turn around and get back to normal. soo good to see you! You were here when I first started out and I thank you for all that you did to help me. You are looking might fine Pie! great to see your post! hugs Sherri

OMG, Sherri--you literally are half the person you were. I can not believe the before and after's on you! Talk about looking like a different person! You look faaannntastic!

Thanks for the good vibes--I'm ready for things to turn around...

And, I am so glad I was of some help to you--it's nice to hear!

Take care and keep up the awesome progress!!!!!!!!

Awwww you get a for saying such nice things! Yep I remember you helping me...in fact you were one of Dr. Alvarez's patients too...I am sure I picked yours and others brains apart...lol...You guys really made me feel safe about my decision. I remember Marcella was one of the first profiles I had looked at on here...she had her surgery a while back...she was also great for help. But I remember you answered all of my questions without getting irritated at me...thats what I loved about this board....the support here was awesome when I first started out. It still is quite awesome....a little snag over the weekend but I think we are all ok now. :-) I am stuck in a stall now so I am working on these last 34 lbs and they are being stubborn! But if I stopped right now I would be content in knowing that. 154 sure beats 300 any day. Anyway girl...you look awesome!! Your face is soo pretty and thin! Good job and a job well done! hugs Sherri

Hi Pielet welcome back! I always enjoyed your posts. I remember you were one of the ones giving me good opinions and advice while I was deciding to have surgery.thanks!  As a newbie, you as a slow loser was good to see that not everyone will lose it real fast. That is a reality that everyone going to have this surgery needs to know becasue they might be one of the slow losers also. Great job with the weight loss! You look great! Good luck with everything!

Andrea, hello!

Thanks for your positive thoughts. I always noticed your comforting responses, too.

And you have lost 41 lbs. in 2 months--it feels so awesome--doesn't it?

So good to hear from you!

Take care--

Pielet

Hey, I'm right there with you, Pielet--I think you've done great. Welcome back! Lizanne

OMG--I never would have recognized you! You look fantastic!

Good to see I'm in such good company!

Hi Pielet! I've been wondering where you had disappeared to. I'm glad to see you back! It sounds like you have been through a lot in the past few months and I hope you're feeling okay. Your weight loss is incredible. Even though you may feel like a "slow loser" your an inspiration and I'd be proud to be where you are now. You look wonderful! I didn't work my sleeve today but I'm motivated to get back on track tomorrow. It's hard to stick with the program but I know it will be worth it in the end. Well, I hope to see more of you now. Take care!!!
