I'm Under 270 pounds

I couldn't help myself. Weigh in is not till Friday, but told myself that I know I am under 270, I feel lighter, my clothes is so baggy, so I checked and I am!

Date of surgery: 349.7 pounds
Today 5/8/06 : 268 pounds
Bye Forever : 81.7 pounds

I was retaining water last Friday on my 21st week after WLS as I thought. This is so encouraging. Oh yeah!!!!!!!

    Congrats, Meliss. You are such an inspiration to me.

    I hope you are feeling better these days. I know living with pain can be very difficult. Hope you know you are in my thoughts and prayers. I'm hoping your faith and the knowledge that there are lots of people who love you gets you through this difficult period.

    BTW, I've been meaning to tell you... your new photo on the LAWLS site looks awesome. What a beautiful woman you are! (Don't EVER forget that....)

    God Bless You and Yours,

    retaining water sucks. The medications I'm taking seem to make it worse. Even though my clothes are more loose my hands are swollen and the scale isn't moving. dumbfounding.
