100 POUNDS TODAY

Today it has been just under 5 months since my surgery (5/15) and I am OFFICIAL at 100 lbs gone!!!!!!!!!!! I am SOOOOOO happy! Now, if everything else in my life was going so well, then I could smile more! (trying to get a loan for a house, working full time, college, raising a 6 yr old who is in soccer, cub scouts, etc. and trying to have a relationship witha wonderful man) iS dang EXHAUSTING> Well, I am off to work and pick up son, and do all the normal stuff, I am just about ready to poop out on everything though. Thank goodness for more energy I have had since the surgery. Keep me in your thoughts everyone, I know I am not a new postop or anything, but stress and all of that, well, I could use some support!
