Well it's been five months since my life changed. I'm down 76 pounds. That's 20 to go before I reach my original goal weight of 135. 23 pounds to go to reach a "normal" weight according to BMI, and 24 pounds before I hit 100 pounds lost!! Woohoo!!

I'm very happy today. Yesterday, as my angel Tabetha A. could attest, I was not. I was feeling down, bloated and worrying about weighing in today (thrusday is my weigh in day). And she basically told me to suck it up LOL. And she was right. I lost three pounds this week.

Here's the photos of my progress. Today's clothes were brought to you by the nice people of Jacob....in their changeroom. LOL. Both top and bottom are a medium. Yay!!

Thanks! I don't get on here as much as I used to before I came back to work (after being at home for 5 years), and I was on the site a lot prior and immediately after surgery. It is so helpful to watch others who are just ahead of your journey. It made me realize that the wait is so worth it!

You are looking great, and so happy.  You should be so proud of yourself girl!  Right now I feel and look like your before picture.  Keep posting because I love to see the progress.  I have my orientation at the hospital tomorrow, so I am hoping the ball starts rolling.  I feel totally ashamed and can't wait for my surgery.  I WANT MY LIFE BACK!
