Aww im sorry to hear that. Did the emergency surgery have anything to do with the GBS? Well I wish you the best and that you recover well! And wow! 190! Thats alot! Most doctors tell me that I can lose about 100 lbs and I've heard people say they've lost way more then 100. I hope to be one of those. So far the weight for me is still coming off and Im eatting alittle better too! The meat I still have trouble eatting.
Well you look adorable and cant wait to see new pics!

Hey there..youre doing great!!!...ive been on solid foods for awhile now, im about 9 months out. Down about 190(?) lbs...things are goingwell..slight setback with a recent emergency surgery but i plan to get right back on the weight loss!!

Aww well youre very welcome! wow thats great, 125 lbs in 8 months! Im 6 months and about almost 80 lbs down. I hope I can lose that much by the time im 8 months out. Yeah I know what you mean.. I havent been working out as much as I should have but now im ready to push myself and try to work out as much as I can!
I have alot to get rid of and work off myself. But you really cant tell in pictures, i guess only we can see it lol
I may even think about the plastic surgery to remove some, but I wont get too crazy since that leaves pretty bad scars. But Im going to try to work it out with exercise before I go with that option.
Are you tolerating solid foods well now or are you still on the pureed stage?

thanks, thats sweet of you to say...im 8 months out, down about 125 since surgery, 190 total...i dont exercise like i should so im kinda flabby..i need to work on that!!

Hey! Wow still looking cute! I would never have thought you were ever overweight or had this procedure. So how much have you lost thus far? Im 4 months out and Ive lost 70 lbs but I'd like to lose alot more. Are you exercising or anything or is everything just going right back in place?

Ohh thats great! I had my nose pierced before and it left alittle bit of a scar. I always worked in offices and they would make me take any piercings out that I had like my tongue ring and my nose ring, so thats why i never got the marilyn monroe before and wanted it now, since im no longer working there.
Well wow you've lost so much already! You can easily shed 100 more but you look great the way you are now.
Ive lost another 10 pounds so thats a total of 27 lbs now and it hasnt even been a month. I want to work my treadmill though and exercise so i can take off as much as possible. I want to loose about 100 lbs myself.

Yes i took it out, no scars..thankfully. I heal quite quickly. I am nowhere near my goal yet..100 lbs to go!

My hair is dark again now also by the way its not blond anymore.
So you took the marilyn monroe out? Did that leave any holes or scars?
Oh wow you did lose alot in such a short time. So are you at your goal weight yet or way passed it already ?

Thanks for the pic comment! I actually look really stupid in my pics lol Im not a photogenic person at all no matter how hard i try. I look better in person I think. But hopefully soon I will be able to take better pictures.. lol ::crosses fingers::

i had surgey 11/24/08 and i have lost 140 something, like 80 of that since surgery
