I've made the 100 Mark!

It's true...as of last weekend's weigh-in, I'm officially down 101 lbs. My surgery date was August 9th. I almost didn't post, cause I know how hard it is not to compare yourself. Heck, I do the same thing. That thought lasted about 2 minutes Haha! and I thought, "Shoot, I'm gonna post!"not because it's such a great loss though it is...but because of the difference in how I feel.....no longer in pain 24/7....soooooo much more mobile. Still a long way to go. Doc says I can lose another 100. I'm hoping but not obsessing. If I eat a double handful of Cheetohs like I did last night BEFORE BED! I'll not lose squat! I near made myself sick on those orange, finger-dyeing things! I called and told my husband to get the back and HIDE THEM before I got home! I did this once before and haven't bought any for 2 months. Got caught in a weak moment at Walmart??? ;) At any rate...for those just beginning...it can happen! For those along the way, I know you know how I feel! Just had to share.

Hey Joyce Congratulations You go girl. You are in the Century Club. I am very proud of your success, you let me know it's possible for us beginners. Take care, Michelle

Hurrah, Joyce!!!! 101 pounds rocks! You better believe that if I ever get to that point, I'll shout it from the mountain tops. I know that's surprising since I am such a quiet person by nature...NOT! I am VERY happy for you, Sweet Lady!!! Celebration Time! Hugs, Becky

Congratulations Joyce!!!! Keep up the good work. Shon

WEIGH TO GO GIRL!! YOU DESERVE THOSE CHEETO'S! Now don't eat anymore of them for a long while!! I know exactly how you feel, and that is my main worry about this surgery. I am so afraid of failure because thats what I have always done when it comes to losing weight. Everyone says this surgery is successful if you do what your told. I am well known to cheat a little when it comes to food! I hope and pray that it makes me so sick that I will never eat anything that isn't suppose to be put in my mouth again! I want this to work so bad. I am proud of you and I have no idea who you are, but we are all in this together and I love this web site! Thanks for sharing with us! Karen

WOW! Thats Great! You deserve recognition and praise for reaching the Century Mark what an accomplishment--of course you should post!!!! When I get there I will up and down like crazy! Thanks for the encouragement for us who have just started down our path, I love to hear success stories Thanks for sharing! Kelly S

Whaddy mean "not because it's such a great loss" ??!!!! IT's AMAYYYYZZZING!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so proud for you!! You are doing Wonderfully.... Keep it up and watch out for those Satanic Cheetos!! Saltine crackers are the bane of my existance....They are a TOTAL weight loss stopper! Great job Joyce!!!!!!!!!!
