ok, im over 4 years post op now and i havent been able to make it to my goal until now. but im here finally!!! i stepped on the scale and it said 138. ive been on topamax since the end of january, and that has helped me stick to my plan. now i have only 2 or 3 pairs of jeans that fit! i cant believe i cant wear a 5! i passed by the long mirror and almost didnt know it was me, i have always been big up top and i just realized i wasnt anymore. im still me inside and i never brag to anyone about how much ive lost. if they ask i tell them, but i never bring it up. i know ill probably never have another plastic surgery done, the last one was the pits and a waste of money. i just had to say i never thought id see the day when i would see those numbers again. but it can happen! so to everyone it is possible no matter how far out you are. my pouch still gets full easily so i still have to be kind to it even after 4 years,lol. good luck to everyone who has or is getting ready for surgery. now i have to go drink some good old phosphate soda for my colonoscopy in the morning. so ill be near the toilet all day! yuck!

I'm glad you're doing well! I'll be 5 years post op on Jan 29th and things are going quite nicely. I'm focusing on a little more weight loss and then taking care of a few things then focus will turn to plastics. ALL in God's time that is for sure! Good luck w/ the colonoscopy...my thoughts and prayers will be with ya!
