OMG!!!! FINALLY DOWN 103 lbs !!!!

Hey Everyone, I know that I have not been on the boards like I used to but I have been down in the dumps a bit about being stalled for months and toying with the same 4 pounds up and down for months! I didn't want to come here and rain on everyone's parade so I stayed away until I could deal with my own emotions in a constructive way. (ie... not eating for comfort... that was a battle I had to fight on my own!) Anyways, I worked through it, made some changes and I have finally started moving the scale again! It isn't even my official weigh day til thursday but I have done nothing but drop weight everyday and I am just BURSTING with excitement.... as of today I am down 103 lbs!!!!! I finally broke into the century club! YEAH BABY!!!! I am only 8 pounds from goal now and my BMI is finally in the "normal range" for what the military finds acceptable! (ie, if I wanted to join today I would not have to get tape tested, I would make the cut off on my own!) I can honestly say that now I am freaking happy! I could stopped today and be happy, I broke 100 pounds and that is what I wanted to do! I am so excited. I actually don't want to loose much more because I am already looking "too skinny" for my bone structure (large boned no joke). I just want my PS so bad.... realistically it will be a long time before we can afford for me to have that done though. Unless I get lucky and get a spot on Extreme Makeover or some crazy stuff....LOL! A girl can dream right?!

Jamie, I am so glad you are back!! Congratulations on your 103 pound loss!!! I do know what you feel though because today, my weigh in day, I gained 1 pound. I thought what is up with this???? I am okay with it though and not trying to get to stressed about it. I told myself well I am still down 101 pounds. I know that we will go up and down a few pounds here and there so I am trying to deal the best I can. I know what you mean about PS. I know that I need it but don't know when it will happen. Just another thing to worry about!! And people say this surgery is so easy!! NOT!!!!!!! There is always something else to think of. Okay enough from me!! Congratulations!!!!!! I am so proud of you!!!
