 I thought this day would NEVER come! I stared at my scale blinking in disbelief when it read 192 lbs today. I have fought HARD to get to this day. I finally can say I reached my second MAJOR goal. My first was to see less than 200 lbs on my scale. I am really excited! I worked hard to get it off! I have been working out, eating right and trying everything I can do make sure I stay on track (no more pretzel or popcorn binges). I have been eating protein foods to get my protein in. Not those nasty shakes. I also have some bars and a couple of protein snack foods that I like. The bbq snacks on bariatric choice website are good (they look like cheerios).

Congratulations Valerie.  I'm so sick of stalls, but I like when it stops teetering and goes back to my lowest point, that can only mean one thing, that I'm getting ready to drop a couple more lbs.  I'm down 47 since surgery and all I can say is "come on 50"  lol  - I walked 3 miles for me, that's the farthest and longest I've walked in a very long time, probably since I was a teenager and walked to the MJ "BAD" cd.  There were 3 songs on there that were good walkin' tunes.  That man certainly had some great beats in his music.  It was fun.  :-)

Keep pushin' on Valerie  :-)  As we get closer to our goals, the longer it's going to take to lose those final pounds, or at least logically, that's the case  :-)

Congradulations & great job!
I've been eating crackers. Starting to get more protein & fluids in though. I just love the carbs, but much better that I used to do!
