I did it! I really really did it!

As of this morning, I'm down 100 pounds!

It seems like just yesterday I was being wheeled into surgery.....and here I am a little over 4 months later......celebrating my brand new life! I'm proud of ME for sticking to my surgeon's diet and exercise plan and for seeking the support I need from this board and thru my local support group. I'm happy that I can participate in my own life again and in my family's life again. And I'm thankful for my newfound friends on this wonderful website! Now onto the next big hurdle.....I still have 150 more lbs to go....so I'll be here posting and sharing successes and failures (it's OK to admit we have them) along the way. Thanks for being here with me. You guys and gals are the BEST!

Hey there Shelli -- congrats on making the Century Club. You must feel so awesome!! Isn't this an amazing ride that we're taking. We had surgery the same day (I'm down 86) and I can't remember when the last time was I felt so good. I actually looked forward to starting my new exercise class (Fit Ball) last nite and then went for a 2.5 mile walk after just because I still had energy to burn. Keep up the good work!!! and keep us posted. Be proud!!! This board is awesome for support. Janie
