I am 2 lbs away from losing 100% of my excess BMI: Weight day I left the hospital 12-19-06: 292 Current weight: 160 What a difference 132 lbs makes!  I am SO grateful that for this day, in this week, my mind has settled and is at ease. I can sense my overall weight loss for the first time in 11 months. I have a wonderful post operative program in place, and all in all, I feel so fortunate that we have all been given this gift and tool to change our lives. It's really empowering to take back control of my body and work on maintaining a healthier lifestyle. I hope this week is a great for everybody, and if it is not, hang in there, because next week brings us new opportunities as well! Best, Megan

Thank you! It was so nice to actually *feel* the weight loss today....I've been really detached from it this whole year, for some weird reason. I am really excited about this, and I can't wait to hear about all your successes (and bumps) as well :)

Congrats on your wt. loss and thanks for inspiring us all to be Thankful. I am fairly new, 7 wks. out, and I still feel nervous about everything, so I hope to just relax and be thankful.

Laura: Thanks so much for your support. That's what it's all about....and congrats about making it 7 weeks! It's ok to be anxious, SO much was happening then for me, I was a mess! Just rely on us, rely on the rest of the world and never be afraid to ask questions! We are behind you! Megan
