Okay, so its our month now. What is the one thing you are most looking forward to this month. Mine was being at goal. I did it a while ago so I'm happy. Now I've changed mine to just making sure I'm healthy and happy!

Well... I wanted to be able to say I had lost 100 lbs. But, that's not to be. So I'll just say that I've lost 82 lbs and be happy!!! Pam

Reaching goal!! I've been battling the last 1 - 2 lbs. for a couple weeks now. I still have 15 days til my 1 year mark, and I WILL make it to goal by then!! From there I intend to concentrate on my body fat percentage, which means I need to exercise more to change fat into muscle. Kathy

My goal by 10/24 was to be under 200. Well I am 198 today and maybe by 10/24 I can get to 190. That would put a smile on this old face!!! Tanya 355/325/198/150 highest/day of surgery/today/goal

When I had the surgery last year, all I wanted was to to be able to get around without feeling pain everywhere in my body. I reached that goal 3 months after the surgery. I also wanted to be able to play with my kids, go places with my husband, and to just feel human, again. Well, I've reached all of those goals. I missed my 1 year goal weight by 2 pounds, so I guess I will work on losing those 2 pounds this month. Life is good!!! Love you guys, Jane

My goal was to stay at goal and get fit, I've been at goal since late June but I keep obsessing and now I'm below goal by 6 pounds. I really like this weight (115 at 5'1") and I just want to be able not to obsess anymore and just enjoy and be happy. Love you all Lucie
