Onederland !!

Nov 24, 2008

I'm just back from the hospital after having my first of two total knee replacements.  Some time over the hospital stay, I finally broke through the 200-pound barrier and I am now officially in Onederland!   FA-LA-LA-LA-LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA LA-LA-LA-LAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I had noticed that the skin on my torso and thighs was sagging more than usual, so I had high hopes that I was down.  It was a great present to come home to!!  I weighed in at 191.6 pounds .... I add about 3 or 4 pounds to get to my surgeon's scale number ..... so that is definitely under 200 now!  YAHOOOOOOO!

Here it is just over one year since my consult with Dr Graber, or 10 months since my surgery, and I'm down over 120 pounds.  I'm down over 235 from my heaviest.  Hard to believe.  So much extra skin and saggy bits.  Oh well.  Well worth it though!  I'd much rather be healthier than to have taut skin!  I have cleavage from my boobs down to my pubic area.  Looks just lovely. 


I hope to have my second knee replacement in the New Year - somewhere around February.  I CANNOT WAIT to be able to walk properly.  Life is good!  Now go out and enjoy it!!!

Hugs to you all!
