Onederland!

After a month of hovering between 202 - 204, I weighed in this morning at 198.4. I had to look twice because the number didn't register at first!

Over the last year, I've read many similar posts from people who are ecstatic about reaching this very important milestone, and I had doubts that it would happen for me. With every stall I think, "this is it. I'm at my new baseline. I haven't lost for x weeks so I'm done". But then suddenly my body releases 4 - 5 lbs within a couple of days (is still a crazy feeling when this happens). 

I started this journey with the first phone call right after Christmas of 2015, and my surgery date was June 6th, so I'm 9 months out. I've lost 82 pounds and gone from a size 20/2X to a 14/L. It's been the best decision I've ever made. I have my body back. I can do things I could never dream of doing and I'm excited about the future.

I want to thank this community for all the help and support. I'm forever grateful and couldn't have done this without you!

Remember "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?"  I borrow from it:  You ah the one who did it, Lisa, you ah!"

You also ah the bee's knees.

I'm old enough to remember that movie very well!
