It's been 4 months, 67 pounds. Despite some difficulty getting acclimated, the experience has been really easy. I have no regrets.
Some nsv:
a. I find myself smiling  and being smiled at more often.
b.Strangers at work are complimentary.
d. I can finally get back into my old wardrobe.
e. Most importantly, despite the challenges of my personal life, I look forward to tomorrow

The scary thing is, I've been here before. However, this time I have my tool that can help me to push past this point and reach my goal.
This weekend, I'm looking forward to moving into the one place that has eluded me over the last 10 years...Onederland ( one more pound to go!).  Special shout outs to  Mrs. "Newbie Tip of the Day" Neenaj for giving advice, Mack Momma for keeping it real and keeping it going, Dalexis for making me think, Sboyd "the quiet storm" and the countless others who have humored, cajoled, and encouraged me either directly or indirectly.

New pictures posted on my home page.

Thanks, although I've done this before, I don't think that I could have done it again without wls surgery. It would have just been another yoyo diet that would end in more weight gain, and my goal of 135lbs would be insurmountable.

Congratulations on your NSV's and being down 67 pounds! Onederland is just around the corner my friend.  Keep up the good work.

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
