My missing half..

I just thought of something I am within 15 pounds of losing exactly half of me.. I look at myself sometimes and I see how far I have yet to go. But it just occurred to me here in the middle of the night , that half of me was almost gone.. WOW.. I knew I was big at 310 on my short body. But I never imagined that I was carrying around 2 me's.. LOL I for one, dont miss that half.. I am loving the parts left behind. Saggy skin and all.. Thank You God for allowing me to have this tool and save my life.. And Thank you all for the loving support and acceptance you have given me here in this group. Love you ALL Laura

accent the positive!!!!!!!!

I knew you could do it. Happy Thanksgiving Laura!!! Richard

Laura, That is great! I don't miss my other half either! Actually I have lost more than half of me now! It is great to be able to walk (or swim like a fish in your case)....tie your shoes with out tying them to the side.....no more huffing a puffing walking from the car to the store....so many things to be greatful for isn't there?! The group here is very inspirational! So many people who share their experiences with us and helpful suggestions along the way! Hope your Thanksgiving was great! Sue 320/154/130 goal

Sue, I got a kick out of something this morning. After my shower I was getting ready to get dressed and I looked down and I could for the first time see my actual belly button, not surrounded by fat. But just flat.. And its no longer 4 inches deep. LOL I know this is a silly thing to be tickled by.. But its been so long I cant remember seeing my belly button without looking in the mirror to see it. What a wonderful adventure this is!! Love and Hugs Laura

Laura, Isn't it funny how little things like belly buttons make us haopy!? I used to be able to fit my whole length of pinkie in mine.....not any more. It sure isn't flat but I am only one knuckle fat now ! This is where I carry most of my weight now....my stomach and thighs....I wonder if I will ever not look like a deflated balloon?! Doesn't matter to me really....clothes cover it up! Have a great...what's left of the weekend! Keep smiling! Sue
