I did not see my magic number on Labor Day like I had anticipated. However, today is my lucky day. I was doing the happy dance at 3:30 a.m when the scales said 188.6!

I wanted to throw in the towel because the scales did not move on Monday. But, thanks to my BF, I continued this journey and it is so rewarding today! I have lost 83.4 pounds since surgery and a total of 108.4 since my heaviest weight! One more thing, yesterday I decided to purchase a size medium shirt and I did not try it on until this morning and IT FITS PERFECTLY! This is an amazing journey and I am forever grateful to have had Lap-Band surgery.

People are so worried about what they eat between Christmas and the New Year, but they really should be worried about what they eat between the New Year and Christmas. ~Author Unknown

Way to go Faith! The SVs are instant and awesome, but the NSVs keep you going. I love it when they are clothes, too becuase you can feel good all day long wearing them.

I weighed 313 pounds on December 1, 2008 the day of my RNY surgery and have lost 81%
of my excess body weight to-date. Current as of November 1, 2009
OH Mini-Challenge Goal for New Year's Day is 170 pounds. 11 pounds to go!
