I've lost 100 pounds!

 I am almost 5 1/2 months out and I hit 100 pounds lost this morning!  

It's all that lawn mowing I'm doing!  I feel great!  My goal is to lose 20 more pounds and then I will decide how I feel at that point.  I'm not as freakish as I was about sharing the fact that I had surgery with others, as I was before.  If they really press me about how I've done it, I just tell them, but explain it's only a tool and I've made major life changes as well (no sugar at all,  lots of exercise etc).

I've gone from a size 24 to a size 12/14 Petite and countless bra sizes!    I do have extra skin I wish I didn't have, but I wouldn't change the overall results for anything!

I had a massive heart attack 3 yrs ago this month while 35 wks pregnant with my youngest Son.  I  was so afraid that I would have another and not get the second chance I've been given.  I strive to be healthy because I have to because I will forever be at a higher risk of another.  But I don't k worry about it every day like I used to.

So anyways, I just wanted to share that I hit a big milestone today and am sooooo happy about it and wanted to tell my OH Friends.

Thanks for listening!    Tess

PS - I am taking Biotin every day now!
