Look at my ticker!
I started my journey at 235, my highest weight this year. Due to a full liquid diet before surgery and then two days of clear liquids, I went into surgery at 219.
That was 5 weeks, one day ago.
I weighed myself today - and I'm 199!! I have lost 20 pounds since surgery and am in ONEderland. I can't remember the last time I put a 1 in front of my weight. I've had good days and bad, but this really makes it worth while. I feel better - I can do things better, I'm already seeing a difference and have bought new clothes. I can't wait to see what else happens.
Thank you all for your support!! Pam
Instead of complaining that the rosebush has thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses. ![](http://images.obesityhelp.com/_shared/images/smiley/msn/thumbsup2.gif)
