Guest guest Posted June 29, 2000 Report Share Posted June 29, 2000 na Congratulations !!!!!!!!!!!!! That is something to be proud of. What a great and healthy change. IM looking forward to the weight being gone like you. All my comorbs are gone and IM only 19 days post-op. Do you think we should see an Internist? I've been pondering that since the surgery. My PCP says no but I figure that's his specialty. Love, from Fla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 30, 2000 Report Share Posted June 30, 2000 Hi na, I just want to congratulate you again on the 6 month check-up. What awesome progress you have made!! I wrote to you privately yesterday but I forgot to mention that the next 20 pounds will probably mean a great big jump in sizes. I only stayed in 16's for 4-6 weeks. After hit 185 the pounds came off slowly but for every 10 pounds I dropped a couple sizes. At 175 I was in 14's and now at 165 I'm almost exclusively in 12's. You will really recognize the difference when you start getting down towards your goal. I can FEEL the difference 5 or 10 pounds make now as much as I could 30 or 40 six months ago. I hope that makes sense. Love to you!! Hope to see you again soon!! Maybe on the cruise!! in Raleigh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
