          Hi everyone I am down now to 84 overall and 74 since surgery!! YAY!! I am soooo excited!  I have met four out of my five goals. Woo Hoo! Yesterday I put on zipped and buttoned two pairs of wrangler jeans! They are a bit tight but definetely werable! YAY!!!! So one more goal to go and that is to be in the 100 club! 13 pounds to go for that one!! Thank you Lord!!! 

Hi all I know it has been ages since I have signed on. I weighed myself today, Sept 3rd and I am down 77 lbs. That is 67 lbs since my surgery on March 12. I never in my wildest dreams thought I could lose this much weight and feel as good as I do. I love my band. It is not a cure but a tool God gave me to help me conquer my weight issues. My life is different in every way. It is incredible. I went on a cruise two weeks ago for a week to Alaska and am very proud to say I did not gain an ounce! WOO HOO!!!! How's that?????? I have gone from a tight 26 to 18, 18 can you believe it? My butt is half gone! WOO HOO I sat in coach and had ROOM!!!! My goodness that was amazing! and here is a really fun thing men are looking at me and smiling! WOO HOO~~ We all know how that feels, well us women know how that feels. I know now that my life has been changed all for the best! The only problem I am having is my hair I have lost nearly half of ot. Thank goodness I had a lot to start. It has slowed waaaay down now so this is good. Anyhow best of luck to everyone out there. Hang in there! This is the BEST!!! Love, Patti

   Fifty lbs gone! actually  51 My goodness thank you LORD!!!!! What a blessing this is. I love my band, I love my doctor and I love my size 20 jeans!!!!! I started at a tight 26 and now am in 20's in just a week less than three months!  Wranglers here I come!!!!

Hi everyone! I have been at a stand still for a couple weeks now. So I had a fill last Thursday. YAY! My loss has kicked in again. And now I am down an overall of 47 lbs. HA I wanted to be down 50 by August, guess I will make that!! Tee Hee Hee!

40 lbs gone!!! WOOO HOOOOOOO!!!!!

  Woo Hoo! I had my six week check up yesterday and I have lost a total of 36 count em, big ones since the end of February!! Yay!!!!  Now  tell me what "diet" canmake you lose that much in that short of time?? The answer for me is... NONE!!! This isn't a diet it is a life change and I am doing great!!!  I can eat vegetables now yipee!! So I am eating pretty much normal food except stringy meat like beef and starches. But who cares? I feel great and am losing. Iw as on a plateau for a couple weeks but Saturday I started losing again. My scars are healing so nicely, I am sleeping really well, (I have not done that in ages) adn people are complimenting me on my loss. That right there makes it so worth it. Nothing and I mean NOTHING fits!! YAY!! My bras are too big, well that is kind of a bummer but who is complaining???  I founda bunch of jeans the other day I have not worn in a long time and they are toobig now! Oh my goodness! THis is fantastic!!!!! Well, good luck to everyone and thank you soooo much for all the support I am getting you are all wonderful!!! Love me

  I got to ride yesterday for the first time! The boys were very happy along with Mom who was thrilled!!!! It was fantastic to ride again. I lifted my own saddle and everything. I felt okay! So life is once again good! Great actually. I feel good and people are starting to notice my weight loss. I haven't lost any more in two weeks which is a bummer.. But NOTHING fits!!!!!!!!   What a loser I am!!!!!! Well have a great day! 
Patti

   Sorry everyone it has been three weeks since I posted. Well, I am in my 4th week and I feel good! Nothing fits which is incredible! YAY! HA That's an odd thing to say! But what else can a loser expect???  
My incisions are basically completely healed and most all of the puffiness is gone. Except for a bit around the port. I have lost 20 lbs so far. That plus the original 11 makes 31 so far. Woopie!!. I promise I will write more but I have to scoot now! Have a great day!
Loser Patti!! tee Hee hee

Hi all I just had my one week check up! Woo hoo I lost nine, count em 9 pounds since surgery! Woo Hoo That means a total of twenty since I started with Dr. J. I am so excited. My body has told me "NO MORE LIQUID PROTEIN" so he put me on clear liquids and yogurt/cottage cheese and maybe some egg. Okay, cottage cheese is BLICKY to me. So I am going to have to figure that one out. But I figure if I can have surgery maybe I can teach myself to like CC. EEK!!! So anyhow I am doing well. Trying to figure out if I really am hunry or if it is my head that is saying I am hungry. This is a new life with LOST of new changes!! See you later! P~~

Okie dokie, today has been a queazy day. ICK, I walked this morning and have been in bed pretty much all day since. My doctor said I could have some soda crackers and that felt so good. The gas they use for the lap surgery is moving around and is a bit painful at times. But other than the queasiness I feel pretty good. Just a bit of pain at one incision site. Still on the liquid diet and I am pretty much sick of it!! BLICK... Anyhow things are going well so far. I am so happy to become a healthier and lighter person. I am excited to be a better role model to my students and I know my horses are going to be happy too!! Have a good day and i will write more later Patti
