Topic: I have made the century mark!!!!!
I am so excited--this morning I got on the scale and I am officially down 101 pounds. I started this journey weighing in at 325 and today I am at 224.1--I cannot even describe how much better I feel. I was hoping that I hit the century mark before my 6 month post-op date, and I made it a little bit early. To all that are on the same journey and to those that are considering it, this has definately been a ride, but I'm so glad that I got on. The beginning was rocky, but as the days go by, they get better and better. I am proud of all of us, that have made a life-style change.

Marla, good for you and I am sure you will make your anniversary goal. It looks like the 6 month mark has been a great milestone for many October people. Keep up the good job.

Congratulations Amber! I can't wait till I get there, it will be awile though. I lost 84 so far. What was your BMI when you started? You have done a marvelous job.

Hello October People!
Congratulations to each and every one of you. I know the journey has been hard, but we ALL have made a positive change whether you reached 100 pounds or 50 pounds, it doesn't matter - just keep focused on what made you have the surgery in the first place.
10/12/04 and I weighed in at 307
Now I weigh 227 (well, this morning it was 230 - but I am not claiming those 3 pounds (let's just say it was water gain) BUT ANYWAY, I feel great and my self confidence is back with a vengence!
I have my health back and I am most thankful for that! Be Blessed! And keep up the good work EVERYONE! Never be discouraged when you reach those plateaus, just increase your water and LEAVE THE BREAD ALONE! (I'm preaching to myself) : )
