Congratulations Inky!!!
Doesn't it feel great to be off your meds!! Your post has reminded me that it is not just about the number on the scale. I sometimes get so obsessed with the scale, that I forget about how much healthier we all are.
Keep up the good work!

LOL... I did have to read the signs at every coaster to find out where those modified seats were at, it really felt weird not to go to them.

Wow!!! is right!!! I was at a church picnic the other day and somebody offered one of those flimsy aluminum with the plastic straps lawn chairs. Well, 90 pounds ago I would never have even attempted to sit in one. I admit I hesitated - didn't want the thing to collapse under me. Then I remembered that I wasn't fat any more!!! So, to Lisa's comment, yes, I still find myself thinking about looking for the modified seats.
I am so glad you had a great time. I know exactly what you mean, Gineta.

I am happy to report that not only was I taken off my blood pressure meds after one year last week (woohoo!!), but my I just got the call that my labs came in all within range as well!
My LDL is 102 (near optimal - it was over 190 a year ago!)
My HDL is 37 (needs to be at 40 so doc recommended 1000 mg fish oil/2x a day).
I have lost about 68% of my total goal weight loss
So with all that said, I might be battling a hella crazy stall/two pound boogie, but my health improvement is a resounding success story. And I went down a pant size again. Stupid stupid scale - must not let it control my life
I wish you all the same excellent health results too!

Don't u just love the wow moments..QUESTION did u catch your self looking for the motified seats or wonder if u were gonna fit in them? Monday I asked my hubby to bring me a pair of jeans from the closets and like most men he just grabbed the first pair he saw and brought it over to me. I had to chuckle as I knew they were my 28 /30 pair of jeans and I tried them on for old time sakes and they just dropped to the foor and he said wow.. I think I will find another pair for u.. gave me a boost of how far I have come from. 90 LBS IS ALOT OF WEIGHT!!!! That is 90 wow moments for me
