Hey all, just checking in!
I know I checked in a few months ago and said I would come around more often, but it seems that I didn't keep that promise and have been getting emails asking if I was ok and how I am doing. Honestly I have no complaints other then being bored to death and hoping in Sept I can find a job atleast PT. I have a whole new circle of friends and have been going to concerts and BBQ's although the weather isn't cooperating there. My boys are doing so much better, my oldest didn't do well his first year of HS. Behavior wise he is a totally different kid, but school wise not doing well at all, so he will be going to summer school, I told him he is 15 he has to take on some responsibilities. The hubby is totally enjoying his new Harley also when weather allows lol. Lets see, just went to the nutrionist and they keep asking me to come in and talk at one of their meetings, I was called a "model patient" I don't do talking in front of crowds and said I really can't do it, I would try and come and if they asked questions i would do my best to answer, But do not want to be in the center of the ring with all eyes on me. I am weighing anywhere from 133-138. I am 5'6. I had gotten down to 129 I hated how I looked, but I am hearing from so many people how much better I look now, even months ago at the same weight I was told I looked sick, so I guess everything is starting to settle, My boobs are a sad sad site, my tummy as well and I eventually want to get them done but I havent made the call yet cause I can't afford it now and dont want to be excited for something I can't do. So all in all that is what is going on with me, I will post some pics and I wont make promises to come around but will try my best, with summer here maybe I will have alittle more time.
Hope everyone is doing well

It's great to hear that you are so active and doing well. You do look fabulous, of course. There must be a period where things shift around even though your weight doesn't change. Some people thought I looked a bit sickly at 6 months and now that I am a year out, they think I look healthier. In any event, you are an inspiration to many people here, including me, not just because of how you look, but that you have faced down other difficult challenges in your life while going through the WLS process.
