Congrats Diva! A great Bday and Christmas Present for yourself! Patti, in Montague

Thank you for your help ladies! Lori

I got a baby plate, and piled food on it, and ended up only eating about half of the baby plate, I still have a problem judging my portions, but I only had a few nibbles of dessert, and only a few drinks, so overall my Thanksgiving wasnt too bad this year....actually this is the best Thanksgiving I've ever had because I am 90lbs lighter!!!!!

I think that you are doing GREAT!!! I too started at 240 and now am down to 178. I have gone from a 20W/22W to a 10/12!!! I couldn't be happier! I have had a couple of LONG platueas that were kind of discouraging, but I lose inches. So keep your chin up!!! Remember NOT to compare yourself to others.....you are the only you, and that should make you smile. Would you have lost this much on your own with out surgery and KEEP it off????? Probably not.....OK.....NO! So don't get down on yourself!! Chin up hun!!! LeAnn

I got on the scales today expecting them to stay the same. I thought I had indulged a little too much during the weekend. However, I was pleasantly surprised by a 2 pound weight loss this week. Now to get through the rest of the holiday season without blowing it. This will be the first holiday season that I will NOT gain 10 to 15 pounds from October through January. At the rate I have been losing, I will make my long term goal by the time I have set for myself to be at goal. And I no longer have more pounds to lose than what I am supposed to weigh.
