Okay - I have nothing to complain about now...
Congratulations DD!! I'm right behind you and in about the same place. I keep hearing about people who lose 30, 40, even 50 lbs in their first month. But I'm being very philosophical - it's all coming off anyway. They may hit a major plateau later and I might catch up to them - or whatever. It really doesn't matter as long as it keeps coming off bit by bit. Every pound lost is a milestone because we're not going to revisit that weight again like we used to before. So, great job - keep it up!!!!

Isn't this the most marvelous feeling? To be saying goodbye to the lbs once and for all! If I only average 10 lbs a month, in a year I will be 120 lbs lighter!!! Oops... I only need to lose 100 (when did I EVER look at it like that???)
Congratulations to all of the March losers! What a bunch of winners!

Way to go DD!!!! I have been thinking of that milestone myself! It has been 7 years since I was below 300, and it wasn't very long at that. I had my surgery March 25th, I went for my 2 week check up today. I started at 369 and now weigh 345. I am dancing a jig I was so excited!
As someone else mentioned I will probably be one of those Plateau hitters, but it'll all come off eventually. Congrats on your news and feel GREAT! Good JOB!~!
Yippeee!!! I think we are in exactly the same place, Dina. I have 3 lbs. to go to break that 300 lb. mark. I have not seen under 300 lbs. in nearly 20 years. The possibility of it happening is too overwhelming for words. Part of me still can't believe this is happening. I am SOOOOO happy for you! Best, Maureen
I've got another 13 lbs to break that 300 mark - I broke it 2 years ago after 9 months of Weigh****chers - and once I broke it I broke my diet and gained it all back. I have lost 47 in less then 6 weeks this time, and I WONT gain it back how awesome is that? Congrats at almost being under 300 - you are doing wonderfully!
