How much more can I go?

HI there guys and gals. Today I was thinking. I am almost 8 months out from my WLS -100pds and I am wondering? Is this weight loss really a reality or am I dreaming? All my life I could not take off more than about 20 pds to gain it back. Is this really happening to me? How much more will I lose? I don"t have much more but it feels so great and must pinch myself that this is real. Anyone else going through this? Take care. Peace and keep on this journey. Have a blessed day and so far I feel great. Digesting my food and no pains Lorraine

You look sooooo good too. I once lost lots of weight... starving. I barely ate anything at all and I exercised about 5 hours a day...needless to say, I couldn't keep that up. I was never able to do it again either and I gained back more then I lost, as usual. I need to lose a lot more weight, so it is hard to relate to everyone who has reached their goals. It is very inspiring to hear how well everyone is doing and it always gives me hope. I am so happy to know you are well. I hope you have a wonderful day.

Lorraine, Glad to see you are feeling better. I find this WLS so mind blowing @ times. I am down 98lbs and like most people here I am stuck where the scale is not moving. I too, wonder WOW is this for real @ times. I do get fearful that the weight will magical reappear one morning b/c it just seemed to come off so fast! I want to lose another 25 pounds and with the slow down I wonder if I will not make it. However, b/c of this support system I know its all normal and I am not alone. Karie -98

Karie, You are not alone. Always remember that OK? I feel the same about this support system. It has really helped me so much.... Have a great day LORRAINE

Loraine, I am so happy that you seem to be feeling better!! I feel the same way you guys do... I can't believe that I am in somes 6s and mostly 8s. It still amazes me when I pull a pair of pants off the rack and even though they look so SMALL... they fit (and sometimes are too big)! You guys have helped to keep me "in line" with my eating and exercising. Granted, it doesn't always work but I know if I need it I can come here to get a sympathetic ear and a quick kick to the butt! Thanks y'all! ~Rachel

This Surgery has been the best thing I could have ever done for myself! I still like you, think all this is a dream! Now that we are all 8 months out, I wonder if I will be able to get to my goal I have set for myself. I pray we all make our goals we have set. I still don't see myself as thin while others do, but I hope in time I can see myself as everyone else does and get rid of that fat girl image that I have seen for sooooo long! Big hugs to ALL of you! Sandy 310/184/155ish?
