Reaching onderland is a big moment - especially as you indicated it had been 30 years. I know how that feels!!
Remember this moment - especially as you continue on your way to goal - remember it many years out and how great it feels to be in control and to feel confident. There may come a time many years out that you forget what it feels like.
Congrats
Thank you Barb. I will try to remember this moment. Not sure that I will ever feel like I am in control, but I hope to be in better control of my eating rather than that horrible feeling of my eating being out of control, if that makes sense. I do feel confident, because I am feeling stronger physically despite my recent accident, I know I have gained muscle while I lost weight and I never want to lose that feeling of being stronger. Although this is my honeymoon period and I may be as besotted as any new bride, I will take your warning that this may not last forever as motivation that if I get off track, to correct it right away rather than waiting for it to become too difficult to get back on track.

Thank you O & D (not sure if I should use your real name) for all of your support and advice. It was great meeting you at Clarkson, my husband and I were both so impressed with your journey. My surgeon has set the low end of my goal at where you are now. So I guess that is my next milestone.
