OHHHHHH!!!!!!!

GUESS WHAT?!?!?!? I am finally getting somewhere!! OK, as everyone knows, I started out at 271 and went into surgery at 261. Guess where I am now. OK, I can't wait that long!! I am now in the 230's!!! Granted it is at 239, but it has a 3 in there!!! My neighbor and I also went to Wal-Mart last night so she could buy a book and she said go try a pair of jeans that are one size smaller than you are now. So I grabbed a size 20 (I wear a 22) and the 20's FIT!!! They were a tad snug in the waist, but I got them buttoned them and didn't have to lay down. It was so exciting. I couldn't believe it. I came out of that dressing room crying. It was a good cry. At the rate all of us "newbies" are losing weight, there will be more than enough room on that bench for EVERYONE!!!! I am so glad I had this done and I can not wait to give Dr. H. a HUGE hug next time I see him. No more getting discouraged. After all, where I am now is better than where I was!!! Hey, that's a good saying!! OK, now that I have excited myself, I need to get the itty bitties to bed so I can start a new wonderful day!!! LOVE TO YOU ALL!!!
