Well yesterday was my 4 month surgiversary. My goal by now was 100 pounds and I think by the weekend I'll have reached that goal!!!! I have lost 97 pounds in 4 months. I was 347 this morning. I've lost 5 pounds in the past 2 days!! Amazing! I still don't feel smaller...........but I know that my clothes ARE getting baggier but I haven't moved down in sizes yet. I can't believe that I'm getting to closer to being out of the 300's!! I'm just so floored............I can't believe it!! Allie -97 pounds!

Congratulations Allie! Its so awesome to see that you're finally getting to a point where you can see all the remarkable benefits of surgery. Im so glad you're feeling better!! How is everything going? I shouldnt just assume all is well, but i cant help but feel like our prayers have been answered and it seems since you've returned home from the hospital that your spirits are back up and you're feeling better. I do hope and pray thats the case! You've been on a long hard 4 month journey and i want nothing more for you than to begin enjoying the rest of it!! You've accomplished so much girl! 97lbs ....Wow! You Go Girl~!!

Thanks Sharyn. Yeah it feels good but it's been horrid. Things with the eating and drinking are still the same. Choking down pain pills to eat, although I've been totally out of any pain medicine I have since yesterday so I'm waiting on my Dilaudid prescription in the mail and just taking nibbles and sips when I can.

Thanks Susan!! IT's been hard fought that's for sure! I'm still about the same. Still taking pain meds to eat and drink. It sucks, but that's life right now. Allie

I wish I could just push a button and my pain would go away!! LOL And I laughed so hard when I read you were thinking of me when you were puking!! LOL Poor girl!! We'll get over all this hard stuff and be big losers in the end!! Allie

100lbs in 4 months blows the mind, but how can you not be several sizes down yet? I tell you, when you get clothes that really fit you, it'll be night and day, you'll see it with your own eyes! I've resisted buying new clothes myself, I'm not a clothes girl, I don't like shopping (nothing used to fit, it's not so true any more ) and I'd rather save my money for something I care about... BUT, just like you shouldn't wear clothes that are way too tight, you shouldn't wear clothes that are way too big, it is not done! Oh, and do you feel cold when you lose weight overnight? Somehow I always know the weight's coming off when I go to bed and I can't get warm. It's August and I've got jammas and a thick quilt over me, next morning 2lbs are off. Amazing! Congrats on this milestone Allie, better days ahead!
