Wow, August just flew by! I am still doing great from the TT. I haven't lost anymore weight. I seem to be stuck at 173, that's a loss of 153 plus the 45 prior to surgery!. Not complaining though. I went to Sears on Friday and just for the heck of decided to try on a pair of Levi's. I tried on a size 14, knowing they wouldn't fit, but guess what! They fit!! I asked my husband if they looked okay and he said, "Oh, they look just fine!" So I immediately did not believe him. So I asked my son if I looked "slutty"; he said, "No mom, you look good!" From that I started wearing the jeans. I still can't believe it. Oh, I also went and bought the red gown at Dillard's. It is a size 12! I am a little uncomfortable in it, but Mike says it looks nice on me. We will see. I am not 100% sure that I will wear it, but it sure is pretty!

I have to bring up our support group meeting again. I want to thank everyone who took part in that meeting. It was a very special meeting and I know it meant a lot to Dr. Freeman and his staff. I would encourage everyone to become active in a support group in your area. I can't even begin to stress the importance of being involved and being an active member. People seem to do better when they attend support group meetings. If you live close enough to Anniston, I would encourage you to come out every third Tuesday night of the month. We begin our meetings at 6PM and they usually last until 8PM.

I hope to see everyone at the ball again this year. We will not be able to recognize each other. Will have to think of something so that we can pinpoint one another!

I will close for now. Take care until next time and remember if I can be of help to anyone please e-mail me. Skinny Wishes~Becky

Well, I am down to 170!!! (-156) Yeah for me!! Only 10 pounds away from where Dr. Freeman said he would like to see me. It is so strange though, I can't ever remember wearing a 12 to 14 and weighing 170! I guess it is just all shifted around!

Well, I took the red dress back and got black, but it is beautiful. Mike helped to pick it out also. It is very beautiful and daring if you will or should I say daring for me. The back is out of this one and it is sequenced all down the back. The only bad part is that I cannot find a one piece undergarment that will take care of these "JUGS"! We will do something because I am keeping the dress! It is too late to be out looking now. I have other things to get done before the ball. I am so excited to see everyone again this year. We had such a fantastic time last year. The only bad thing I can remember from last year’s event is that Tennessee Vols got beat that night! I love my VOLS!! It is hard to imagine just what can happen in a year!

I have had several emails in reference to my TT. I don't mind sharing information or before and after pictures. Just email me. If it will help someone else, I am all for it.

I will close for now and until then May God continue to Bless each of you. Skinny Wishes....
