What's it called when you break the 300 lb mark?

'Cuz that's what I finally did! Whoop!! I know I'm still "fluffy" but I'm making progress. It actually happened yesterday but I have been outta commission for a few daze. Have a wicked stomach virus that has kept me up doubled over in agony the past 4 nights. Like clockwork - 1:00 am the agony begins. Yup, just what I need 6 weeks post op. I'm also dehydrated. Went to the doctor yesterday. Kept me there on IV for 4 hours to get some fluids into me. As much as I am trying to do everything the right way, it's still difficult to get in all the fluids & protein required when you have an automatic gag reflex...due to virus, I hope. But today's a new day and I am feeling a bit better. Concentrating on my fluids today. Won't be able to get out there and walk. Slightest movement is torture to my belly. Oh yeah, I seemed to have "upset" my hernia too with all the walking lately. *sigh* Just wanted to share my breakthrough with you. xoxo Mare

Mare - Congratulations on making this important milestone! It sounds like you're doing very well, except for the virus.

I hope you feel better soon so you can truly appreciate it. Rhonda

IT's called TOOTERVILLE, honey, and congratulations on getting there!!!! Not too sure if I approve of your most recent weight-loss efforts (gagging and puking!) but hey, whatever it takes, right? LOL So sorry to hear you aren't feeling so hot. Try to be gentle with yourself, Wonder Woman. You are doing so well! I am SO proud of you!!!

I'd call it a victory!!!!!!! You've done wonderful Mare! I hate you have the stomach bug, especially so soon out, but am glad it sounds like you're on the way to getting better. Don't stress about the exercise, you need to take care of yourself yet. Noodle

Way to go Mare!!!! :) I hope you get to feeling better soon. I finally recovered from my sinus problems. I didn't ever have to take sudafed, I just tripled up on my allergy medicine and thankfully that helped! :)
