morning all ..

well i stepped on the scale at home this morning and what do you know it said 194( it is off 4 lbs from the gym scale that is my official weigh) so i am going to officially claim my place in ONDERLAND! it has been a VERY long time since i have been under 200 (probably 15-16 years old) ... 199 was the goal that i had set for my self when i started this journey with the idea it would be like every other weight goal in my life.. UNOBTAINABLE well i have reached this goal 7 months and 5 days after my surgery (and one day after my fathers) it is also kind of ironic it was one year ago this weekend that i brought up the subject of WLS with my wife. i am so happy i could just scream!! as DR. Wagner puts weight goals are a moving target and i want to lose another 8 lbs before i start " adding calories" so that when i have my "bounce" i will land right here.. I think this is were i look and feel good (but you never know might feel better at 189)...

thanks everyone for all your support and guidance to help reach my goal !!
and the biggest THANKS goes to one of my dearest friends BAMMA with out your help i would still be that " fat guy" from a year ago .. LOVE YA !!!

There is no need to look back unless you plan on going that way!

Happy dance all around!!!!! That is so great! Keep up the great work, you inspire others as well (including me) I am have a goal of 190 for my birthday in 18 days It is only 2-3lbs away depending on the day I am not sure I am in a stall or not, but I am kicking the walking up a bit more. I am averaging 2.5 miles a day and I want to jump it up to 3.5 or 4 but this heat is kicking my butt. I am so excited for you that maybe today I will make that 3.5 mark

You may be only one person in the world, but to someone you are the world
