Darn. You'll get there. I have goals in mind. The obvious one is 199 by the end of the March 26th challenge and I'm on track for that. I also would like to be to 175 by our anniversary in mid June. It is frustrating when you are on track and all of a sudden your loss slows. We will get there together though.

Yeah, well I lost 7lbs in the last 2 weeks so how could I not stall after that drop, especially at this stage.  I am hoping for a solid 1lb loss by Saturday (my surgiversary) because it will make it a solid 10lb loss month.  If I at least maintain where I'm at it will be 9 and that is nothing to sneeze at.  I'm 182 today and my next goal is 174 (after I beat my hubby).  That makes me overweight...I was really hoping now to hit that by the end of our challenge, though I originally put 180 as the end of challenge goal...I think it will be unlikely for me not to beat 180 in the next 4 weeks...

Congratulations! And welcome to the Poorly Padded Posterior Club. We sit with care, 'cause there's no padding there!

I also get the "Do you feel better?" question, which is sort of confusing, because I wasn't ill, I was heavy. (Yes, obesity can have co-morbs.)

I tend to answer: "No, I feel different.", because I think that's a better description. It's easier for me to move around, and I have more flexibility. I'd like to have more energy, but that'll happen soon. Right now, while I'm adjusting to the changes, it's like walking around in someone else's body, a la "Freaky Friday". Would do this again in a minute.
