I am down 140 lbs now. Wearing a size 16-18 from being a 32 or 5X. I used to wear a 50 DD bra and acutally needed bigger. Now I am in a 40C. I love it! I finally got my first really pretty lacy bra. Now I will probably make my hubby go bankrupt buying new feminine items! LOLOL
I have 7 more pounds to go before being at my wedding weight...and even then I was a size 20-22. So I must have shifted in the last 13 years as well.
I will try to post more pics soon.

Well, it has been 7 months now since my surgery. I am down to 240 or less now. I am loosing slower now. All together I figure I have lost about 130 lbs now. I can eat pretty much what I want. I had my first carbonated drink...a root beer the other day. A small one and it took me a LONG time to drink it. I do not want to get in the habit of drinking pop again but once every other month should be ok I think. I love my root beer! LOL I look pretty much like my new pics...Click on them to see them in normal view...

Other than that...my hair is still falling out. I am taking Zink for that. I am also on B12 nasal spray once a week. I am still pretty tired and get light headed if I skip a meal or do not keep something in my tummy. Let's see...OH! Loose skin. I am starting to work out more to get rid of this flabby skin! Ick!
Did I mention I can cross my legs and am limber like I used to be? I can now lay over my legs with my tummy to the floor like I used to. To stretch and whatnot. I can do so much more. I know I am still considered very overweight but I feel great. I wear a large or x-lg depending on how it is made and A 18-20. Down from a 36 or 5-6X!!!!! My bra size has went from a 52DD to a 40C or 40B. This was what I was for years so I think I am done shrinking there. At least the dh hopes so! **rolling eyes** It is nice to not have jugs hang to my hips anymore! LOL I can also safely ride a horse without killing one now! The limit is 250lbs usually.
Ok, that is about it for now!

Well, I am now officially down 100 lbs in 4.5 months. I feel so much better!!!!!!!!!! I would do this again a billion times over. definitely. I can eat pretty much whatever I want. Just very small portions. I now weigh 265. Down from 368 on June 9, 2004 when I had my surgery. I still have a long way to go but that is ok...I have come a long way! I feel normal now even though I know I am still considered a 'big' girl. I can fit in a booth now, and a theater seat and put my seatbelt on. Do you know how long it has been since I have put a seatbelt on????????? Anywho, I still have 15 more lbs before I can ride a horse again which was one of my goals but I would have to ride a clydesdale! **snort** I want to get down to 250 by Christmas. I hope I can but if not that is ok too. I was 220 when I got married and felt wunnerful then. I was a size 20. I am a 22-24 right now. It feels so nice to be able to go to a regular store and buy clothes!!!!!
Ok, that is pretty much it. If you want to see pictures, click on the link to the left there titled "photos" as I put new ones up!
