More Mini Goals Met!!!!!!!!
Hello Everyone,
I'm down 42.5 lbs in 11 weeks, 175.5. Several years ago I lost the same amount of weight and it took well over 6 months. I was doing the slimfast thing, working out like a mad women getting up at 5:30am every morning, taking in no more than 1000 cal, being a B*@%H to everyone because I was ALWAYS HUNGERY. And you guessed, it as soon as I started eating 'normal' and not working out like a mad women it all came back. I think I stayed at that weight for 2 weeks before the scale started going up again. Well today I got on the scale and I'm at that same weight!And I know that the scale will keep going DOWN!!!!!!!!!
My next Mini Goal is to get to 150. That was my hightest when I was in high school. After that is 135, that was what I got down to when I was on Jenny Craig back in 1989. After I meet the 135 goal I don't know what to set from there because I've never been any lower than that.
I need to babble a little more and tell about another mini goal that I've met. For the longest time I've had to wear women's plus size underwear, you know the "Just My Size" stuff. Well today I can FINALLY fit into regular size underwear. Now they are a size 10 but it's the regular size 10's. The "Just My Size" 10's were SOOOOOOOO big it was like I had on 'grannie panities'. I know that the men are just thrilled to read this, LOL, but sorry it's a BIG thing to me and maybe other ladies out there to reach this part in their WLS path. I've been waiting a long time till I could wear some sexy underthings and night gowns.
Ok babbling over.
Have a Great Day!!!!!!!

Robin, YOU GO GIRL!!! Sounds like you are doing wonderfully! It is such an exciting thing to be able to fit in 'normal' clothes. I did a first this past Sat., I went to Victoria's Secrets and bought size XL undies....OH MY!!! HOW EXCITING THAT WAS!!! Um, not real sure if it's gonna be a good thing for my pocketbook though! LOL....
Keep up your hard work!!!
P.S. I too had my surgery 11 weeks ago today, and am down 56-58 lbs.
