Hi Sharonda, CONGRATULATIONS on your weight loss in 2 years. This is so awesome and encouraging to me that I can still one day make my goal. I had my Lap RNY WLS on 3/27/03. I'm 10 months post-op and have lost 75lbs. The day of surgery I weighed in at 341lbs but my highest weight ever was 353lbs. I'm disappointed with my slow progress but I'm so thankful that I'm losing. I could of never in life prior to surgery loose this much weight in 10 months. I do sometimes get depressed but this was happening when I would start comparing myself to other people. One of the reason why I'm so slow is because I have no restrictions at all when it comes to food. I'm able to eat everything that I was eating prior to surgery but just in smaller amounts. I do not dump on anything. I can eat sugar with no problem so this is why I switched to splenda a really good sugar substitute. I'm now exercising 5-6 days a week. I workout 30-45 minutes every morning by doing The Walk Away the Pounds, Tae-Bo or my Richard Simmons video tapes. I'm now drinkign over 64oz of liquids and I take my vitamins every day. I'm happy because in these last 10 months I've gone from a size 30/32 dress to a 22/24. Though I'm slow I'm going to stay on this road until I get to my destination and I believe in my heart that the Lord has not brought me this far to leave me. I truly loved reading your profile. What do you do daily for protein and exercise to be so successful. Many Blessings, Marilyn Lexington, KY 341/266/175 3/27/03 (-75lbs)

Sharonda, congratulations on your weight loss and reaching your goal. I bet you do have a lot of clothes as I was just thinking how nice it would be to be able to buy clothes as regular stores and not only that but the amount of clothes I would be able to buy. Best wishes to you.

I SAID A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY~*~ I said a prayer for you today And know God must have heard- I felt the answer in my heart Although He spoke no word I didn't ask for wealth or fame, I knew you wouldn't mind, I asked Him to send treasures Of a far more lasting kind, I asked that He'd be near you At the start of each new day, To grant you health and blessings And friends to share your way. I asked for happiness for you In all things great and small, But it was for His loving care I prayed the most of all. (unknown author) FROM MY HEART TO YOU~*~Hugs~*~
