 I'm 5 months exactly today and down 70 pounds since surgery 90 lbs over all.  BMI is 25 and over all pretty happy!  Tried to copy and paste the pics, it didn't work, so they are in my during album.  Just hit my name and it will take you to my profile, if you are interested in my 5 months results.  I know I love to see peoples progress pictures, just wish I could enter them like other people can!  Taz told me how like a month ago and I tried that it didn't work for me :(

 Thank you, and don't even worry, you are headed right where I am.  You will be wearing jeans and looking good in them before you know it.  Today I bought my first pair of size 8 and they fit, I am amazed and I never thought I would get there, do it happens

Lisa, you look like you have been skinny all your life! Good for you!! Have you had any trouble with loose skin or are things "snapping back"? You are exactly a month ahead of me so I've had my eye on your progress to give me an idea of what I can expect. I'll have to say, though, I can't imagine looking that great in a pair of jeans in a month (or even ever). I've got my work cut out for me if I'm going to keep up with you...LOL.

CONGRATS! You look beautiful!

 Thanks Bug!  You always say nice things when I put up my progress pics! LOL  We live so close together.  As for loose skin, my arms are pretty good, I have to say I am lucky there.  Legs too are pretty firm, not as much as I would like but I can work on that.

Now, the tummy and the boobs, well that is not snapping back at all!  Cloths hide it well, but not completely and naked I am a hot mess in that area.  I already asked my PCP about plastics and she just laughed at me!
