Today is my 8 month surgiversary and I am officially in onederland! I am now at 198lbs ! I am so excited. I cried. I never thought I would be here again. I can't even remember how long it has been since I have weighed less than 200. I have lost a total of 143 lbs. I finally broke my 8 week stall a few weeks ago, turns out I actually was not eating enough calories,(unintentionally) never would have thought that would be possible for me prior to WLS.
I just want to thank everyone for all of the support ,advice and friendship along the way. You have all made this journey so much better. I am so grateful that I found this board and all of you. Hope that every one has a wonderful holiday season!!

Love you all !!!!

Congratulations, I know the frustration all to well.

Chele,

Congratulations! That was one of my most memorable moments, breaking the 200 mark and like you it came after a lenghty stall. So be happy and celebrate this season with the new life you now have created with the tool you chose to help you!

Best wishes, Laureen
