 I can't believe it's been 12 weeks!  It's flown by.  So much has changed.  I'm only 8 lbs from being overweight, I exercise like a fiend and I love it.  I'm riding horses again and I'm down to a size 14.  

There have been some negatives.  I have numbness in my legs and while I was/am unconcerned my doc is not so I'm probably going for a round of tests and an MRI.  It may have nothing to do with the surgery but have everything to do with an old horse injury that is flaring up with all the exercise.  I also am having issues with the size of my breasts as it also impeads my working out.  I'm meeting with a plastic surgeon to discuss my options but I"m not hopeful for any real help until I hit goal, and then my insurance probably won't cover it.

I still wouldn't change this new lease on life for anything!  I love all the energy I have and how great I feel all the time.  While I'm still obese, sometimes I look at myself and wonder where the hell another 60lbs is going to come from.  But I'm just going to keep doing what I'm doing and I figure my body will let me know where to stop.  

Without further ado some stats:

 I just put them i Flickr or FAcebook then right click and press copy image (not the url one) then paste them in.  I've never gotten the drag and drop to work.

You are fantastic! What great progress. Hope you get the back thing figured out. I've been having quite a bit of back fatigue, and I'm kind of just attributing it to my muscles adjusting to the weight changes.
