How wonderful for all of you. This gives me hope. I am in the inbetween stage of healing before my first fill. I don't have restriction and am hungry! But God will see me through.

City: Boise State: Idaho | So tell me, how IS life 100 pounds lighter? I want to feel it so much it makes me fight tears. I know its coming, I know it takes time, I know I have to be patient.. but sometimes it just hits me that I will be 100 pounds lighter this year and I'm just overwhelmed by it. Too good to be true kind of a thing.
So please share what it feels like, what changes it has made in you and in your lives. It helps it be more of a reality for us, in some odd way. | |

Lost 95 pounds prior to pregnancy w/Band. Delivered of two healthy boys and one healthy girl (unfilled for all three pregnancies). Thinking about a revision...either VSG or DS.  | |

|  Changes that 132 pound loss makes....
How has loss of 100 pounds changed my life? Here are just a few off top of my head.....- I can go out in public and not be embarrassed.
- I can wear bluejeans comfortably.
- I can fit into booths at resteraunts and movie theaters without problems.
- My legs don't rub together catching my pants on fire....:nervous
- My nieces and nephews can sit on my lap, I never had one before.
- I have more confidence in myself to get up in front of crowds now.
- I can wear a seatbelt in the vehicle now (before it would not fit)
- I don't suffer from severe depression anymore.
- I have energy to exercise and do more outdoors things with my husband.
- I can shop for clothes in my hometown instead of ordering everything from plus size catalogs.
- The JOY I get if I pass someone I know who has not seen me in a long time and they don't recognize that it is me!!! :clap2:
- My favorite...My husband tells everyong he got a new wife and did not even have to get a divorce.:kiss2:
See attached photo of how it looks.....

State: Arizona | You look great Ethel! Notice the smile difference between the two pictures? And the leaning in closeness that you are now showing together? Okay, I gotta ask...Did hubby gain weight or does he just look bigger next to the small you?

| you wouldnt believe the difference 100lbs can make, even 30lbs makes a big big difference.
I dont sweat anymore even when Im not moving around
I dont get back ache
I can stand for half an hour without leaning on something
I can stand and prepare a meal
I can reach all my cheeky bits in the shower.
I can buy clothes all be it in a fat shop, but now Im within their size range.
shoes are 2 size smaller
even jewellry I can buy an 18" chain instead of a 24" chain
I sleep right through the night instead of sleeping an hour wake for 2 hours etc
I can get a bath instead of showering all the time, cos I fit now.
I can get out of the bath and in the bath !!
I can wrap a towel around myself
I can dry all my important little parts !
I can kneel down to clean the hearth
I can get up again !!
I can fit comfortable in a plane seat and get the tray down (still need an extender though)
I needed an emergency operation and was told if Id been the weight I was they would have just had to let me die !!!
in otherwords ITS FANTASTIC
