Guest guest Posted August 27, 2001 Report Share Posted August 27, 2001 Well Everyone, I have finally made it to nine months, boy they sure do fly. I have lost 145 pounds since surgery and 178 pounds since I started!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have lost 56 total inches all over my body. The problem is my skin. It hangs on my arms, legs, stomach. I call my hanging skin on my arms " bat wings " I swear to you if I could have surgery to remove the dangeling skin I would loose 70 pounds for heavens sakes. I am only 92 pounds from goal. I CANNOT BELIEVE IT!!!!!!!! I still only see the fat and the skin hanging and if it were not for my clothes I would not be able to tell a difference in me. It is easier for someone other than myself to see the changes. I have almost caught up with my husband. I am only 7 pounds away from his weight. Tee Hee. But of course he is 6 foot 4 inches so he does not look overweight. Also, this is pretty funny I am 22 pounds from actually having the correct weight on my drivers license. WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPPPPYYYYYY!!!!!!!! I also started back to school so I am busy as a beaver. We moved to s Hill SC and we have a real nice place out there, it even has a swimming pool for my excercising. My hair has finally stopped falling out as much. I used to get several hand fulls when I brushed my hair, now I only get about a half of handfull. I cut my hair after we got back from the Bahamas so the length is shorter and the thickness is alot less because of the hair loss. Love to you all and I am looking forward to seeing what is left of everybody at the picnic. We are leaving Friday Night after Danny gets off work and are staying until Sunday mid-afternoon. See you all there With Love, Lara Akin Post-op (grin) November 8,2000 145 pounds gone FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!! 178 pounds gone since the begining!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
