Hi all,

I don't post much, but I truly enjoy reading everyone's posts. Tomorrow

will be my 6 month anniversary-boy how it flew by! I haven't had any

complications except that my hair is still falling out. It has been doing so

for about 2 months, but luckily I have thick hair and only I can seem to

tell. Well, my husband complains about it in the bathtub!

I am down 74 pounds-from a size 18/20 to 7/8 and some 5's! I feel

fantastic and am looking forward to starting back school this month. Boy

will everyone think I've been busy over the summer! I never thought I would

lose this much so fast. I think that I am pretty much done, but still lose a

couple of pounds every couple of weeks. I haven't exercised at all

yet...maybe tomorrow!

Hope that everyone who I met while I was there for my MGB six months ago

is doing well. Post and let us all know! Take care all.

If you've been losing steadily - and obviously you have - you shouldn't worry

about stopping suddenly, especially at just 6 months out. I am over a year out

& still lose every so often. I did lose steadily for about 11 months & now

still lose a pound every so often & am just 6 lbs shy of my goal - which - is

not based on anything - was really just a dream & now I'm almost there!

6 month update!

Okay, 6 months and 12 days to be exact, but who's counting! I've

been on vacation so didn't get this posted sooner. I can't believe

that last week I wore a bathing suit in a public place. HUGE for

me! I almost didn't do it! Then my husband reminded me that I don't

know any of those people and I'll never see them again, so I did it.

To my surprise I fit in with all the other people, very normal. No

supermodel, but normal was a very nice way to feel. And swimming

with my children was wonderful! Being with them and enjoying their

happiness made me forget about anything else I may have felt. I am

so happy to be getting my life back! I have lost 82 lbs. and I am

wearing a size 10! I am 5'9 " and started at 244 and a size 22. Just

past the magic 6 month period and hoping my weight loss doesn't stop

just yet. I've heard a lot of people say that after 6 months they

didn't lose anything else. Last month I lost 9 lbs., how is it

possible to go from that to just nothing? For those of you that have

stopped losing weight, does it just stop all of the sudden or do you

slow down gradually? Would love to hear some feedback on this! I

would love to lose another 20-30 lbs. and hit that 100lb. mark!

Anyway, I am thrilled to have gotton this far and would do it again

in a heartbeat even if this were the end of the journey! Love

reading the posts about PS, I am starting to realize that I might be

needing to have excess skin removed. YUCK! Oh well, nobody knows

that but me and my hubby, and he could care less. Loved me before

and is thrilled with me now! Thank you Dr. R!
