Reached my Original Goal

Congrats!

I still remember what a trooper you were coming to our support group meeting right after you had surgery!  You have certainly had one of the hardest journey's of most on here.  You deserve every bit of success!  Congratulations!

that is awesome news.

Thanks for all of the kind words everyone.  I definitely had a hard road but I would do it again in a heartbeat.  I just hope to be able to show the newbies that it is all worth it, no matter how tough the road may be.  I still have a lot of firming up to do and a little more weight that I'd like to lose to make me officially normal weight, but I think the worst is over.  Thanks again for the wonderful support you've given me over these past 8 months.
