CONGRATS

You put a smile on my face on a day that I am sooooo stressed. Thank you for

sharing that. Pretty soon though you won't be able to even wear those but

not cause your gaining this time, cause you are a LOSER...tehehehehehe!!! I

love to hear when people can fit into something that they never thought they

could.

I got a letter from the land Insurance Commissioner saying they were not

going to overturn my Insurance company's decision. But I have the letter

that my PCP just wrote for Dr. Rutledge and I am thinking of sending them a

copy along with some of my labs to show that it is medically necessary. What

do you think?

Thanks

OMG - I JUST PUT ON A SIZE 16 PAIR OF PANTS &

OMG!!!! I just tried on a dark blue pair of SIZE 16 PANTS and *THEY

FIT*. They are a little tight in the waist but the hips and legs are

*perfect.*

And of course, I figured this must be a fluke. My *real* test of weight

loss is a beautiful pale green, lined pants suit that I only got to wear

once, ever, about 3 years ago. I tried it on before I went to Durham a

couple of weeks ago and couldn't get the pants up over my thighs. Those

pants, too, are a 16.

So, when I tried on the dark blue ones, of course I said, " Oh, they must

be cut big or something. "

But just for fun, I got out the green ones anyway and OMG, THEY FIT,

TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

24-26 is more accurate about what I was wearing, too. I had just gone

shopping for some new suits in March.

That shopping trip did me in, though. Baggy suit jackets didn't fit

unless they were size 24-26 -- there was no getting around it. I was

*soooooo* bummed by that shopping trip. I will never forget it.

Size 16 is my former " max fat " weight -- the size I would get to when I

would say, " That's it, you've GOT to go on a diet, " and do it. I still

weigh more than I did pregnant, though. But it's looking hopeful.

208 and shrinking. Let's see, that means I've lost 41 pounds in 13

weeks -- I am now OFFICIALLY INSIDE THE PREDICTOR for correct weight

loss at this time frame!! WOOOHOOOOO!

DR. R -- MAKE A NOTE!!!!! LOL!!!

Kind regards,

No kidding!!! That's *exactly* how it feels! I had to RUN in here and

get on the computer to TELL SOMEBODY. I felt like running out in the

backyard and hollering it to Brundidge.

-------I am a so called lurker. I just can't help myself from

responding. I can feel your joy and excitement! What a thrill it must be to

get into a size 16 after wearing a 3x! I know what it's like as I am a 3x or

size 28-30. Certainly not fun, nor healthy. Hopefully someday I'll be in your

shoes and you can cheer me on! I have other medical problems I have to take

care of before I can even consider the MGB, but I'm gathering all my

information. Once again WAY TO GO!!!!!!!!!!!!! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.

We just talked about this the other day. I am so happy that you have been

able to get in to that green suit. I know how bad you wanted to.

CONGRATULATIONS.!!!!!!!
