4 lbs to my 4 month goal!

Well, after a disappointing month 3 where my loss slowed to only 12 lbs., I was really nervous that month 4 would be even slower, but I've been trying hard to do everything right without becoming totally obsessive about it. This morning my scale surprised me nicely....and I am for the first time in rememberance, below 250. And this means that I am only 4 lbs. from my goal for my 4 mo. anniversary (total of 12 lbs for the month, total of 70 pound loss all together) AND........I still have 15 days till my anniversary!!! So, I am pumped! That will also take me to my 1/2 way point for my surgeon's TOTAL goal for me of a 140 lb. loss. Yesterday I had a huge garage sale. I sold some of my bigger clothes but quite a few didn't sell. We are having a 2nd day of it today....then I will put on ebay whatever doesn't sell (the clothes) But, with the things that did sell (clothes and misc), I made almost $300 so far so at least there is some money for shopping for NEW clothes! I guess the other encouraging thing is that a LOT of people are noticing my loss now and I get comments almost every day about it. Gives me a little extra boost that I need to keep going. Have a great Sat. everyone! Jenni -66 lbs.

Jenni, I am fixing to have a garage sale myself Want to come and help me? "lol" Congratulations on the awesome weight loss Jackie

Good luck to you Jenni. I am down 61 lbs. I will be having a garage sale the weekend after Easter. Hopefully I will make some money too. Luckily for me, my mother sews, and she has been able to alter some of my clothes for me. Some people who know of my surgery have noticed the change in my weight and are supportive. I think I also have the same amount to lose as you. Keep up the good work!!! Susan
