Hi all!

you know, sometimes I feel like Glenda, the witch of the north because I can only come onduring certain times of the day/weekend.  I don't try to make a habit of only posting something on here when something good happens because I believe in providing support for everyone.....as much as I can.  however, I had a major wow over this past weekend.  for those of you connected to me through facebook, you already know.  Even at 16 months post-op, I'm still losing weight!  I'm just 10 pounds away now from goal and this past wekeend I went to Kennywood (an amusement park outside of pittsburgh) and for the first time, while waiting in line for a ride, I grabbed the bars on each side of me and lifted myself off the ground.....for several seconds......I was to the point I could tuck my legs under me and hold myself suspended in the air....just by using my arms!  that was my wow for the weekend.  what have been your recent WOWs? 

Hey Aaron,
Congrats, but why a 250lb goal? is that because of excess skin? I am catching up to you, stepped on the scale this am, 264.2

Hey Tom,

What Aaron meant is that his doctor goal was a 250 pound weight loss in total. 

You are definitely losing real quickly!!  Great job Tom.

Wow Aaron that is great you being almost to goal. I hear Kennywood is a great place. I have never been there but saw a show on tv about it. They say it is so special and at night when they turn the lights off its great. I hope you had a good time and congrats on the weight loss..
