Almost to goal!

I, the person who use to weigh daily, havent been keeping up with the scale lately. This morning I weighed myself and I am now 3lbs from my surgeons goal, 8lbs from my personal goal! Its such a strange thing! For the past year+ goal was a million miles away... and now here it is! Its also amazing the smaller you get the difference a few pounds make. When I was 288lbs I could lose a good 30-40lbs and still wear the same size clothes. Now I lose 5lbs and pants are falling off! Its very interesting.. and very expensive when it comes to clothes shopping... now I understand what all those skinny girls would whine about when they said they were 'fat' because they gained a few lbs :-) Anyways, I am very happy with where I am physically and mentally. Its so great to live a life that is no longer run by food... it has opened me up to enjoy so many more things!

First visit to surgeon - 288 ~ bmi 45.1
2 week pre-op 252 ~ bmi 39.5
Total lost - 153 Since surgery - 117!
Goal weight - 155 (mine) 180 (surgeons)
Current weight - 135 (2020 I lost 10lbs due to dedicating myself to working out more and being in better shape)

Congratulations, Jennifer! You continue to be an inspiration to me. Yours was the first profile I read when I joined this site back in November! I was so inspired by you then and still am now!

Jennifer -

Congratulations on attaining your goals ... mind and body! I really appreciate your posting your good news. It's great to celebrate someone's success. While celebrating it, we can also look forward to the possibilities that lie ahead. If you can do it, then may I can too!

I can't quite imagine me at 140 something ... that's where I'd be, if I were as close as you are.

It must be fantastic to no longer have food rule your life.

Again, congratulations on your success and thanks for the hope.
