Just an update I have been on a month plateau and I have finally dropped

three more pounds. I started at 279 on 12/20/99 and I hit 180 this morning. I

am off to Hawaii next Monday for three weeks for some much needed relaxation.

Don't know how much I will get taking along 4 kids and hubby and grampa but I

will try. I went clothes shopping and bought some shorts in a size 13 juniors

and some pants in a size 12. Who would have ever thought wearing any wear

from a size 18 to a 24 all my life that I would finally be able to shop

anywhere I want and things actually fit. Life is grand. I have never spend so

much money on clothes my whole life. I thought I would actually save money

from not eating so much but I am spending that money on clothes. Well thats

not such a bad trade off. Good Luck to all you pre ops out there especially

my brother in law Dave and my sister Yvonne. My 16 year old daughter is doing

wonderful she has lost 100 pounds since 12/20/99 and my mother has lost

27pounds since her surgery on 5-26-00. My sister had open RNY on June 5th and

she has lost 30 pounds since then. Have a great weekend everyone and a Happy

4th of July. Liz

Flo,

Way to go!! But if those 2 extra pounds were supposed to be mine I am going to

be upset.

See why I only want to weigh once a month? It makes me crazy.

Darlene: It makes me crazy too. And here I am already wondering what I

will lose next month. And then I remembered he doesn't need to see me

for two months. So...I'm going to go by his office on August 1 and

weigh myself and not see him. He told me to drop by any time I want to

weigh myself. I'm sticking with once a month too Darlene.

I'm calculating how much I'll weigh on the cruise...sick sick sick...

Been big for 50 years and all of a sudden I'm in a hurry not to be.

Flo,

I laughed when I read your post. I was thinking, Oh no, Flo and I started out

at about the same

weight and by the time of the cruise and the rate she is going I will be

embarrassed if I don't

do well. Oh well, that isn't the point of it and besides you have already seen

me as big as you

ever will. I am trying to talk my husband into the cruise. We have been

talking about doing it

sometime and I want NOW he wants to wait until next year. I know he is afraid

of flying. I will

probably do this with or without him. You know if you can do all it takes to

have the MGB you

can do anything.

Don't worry Darlene. I more than make up for Flo's extra 2 lbs lost. I

only lost 24 the first month. I'm down an additional 5 now. We'll all make

it there somehow!

Let us know...

Amy.
