I made it.. I am finally in Onderland.....
Thank you Connie,,
First off I am so proud for you to not ever have to say 3something ever again ... and soon not to have to say 2something either.. You are doing so good and I am so happy for you... This is really a wild ride.. with so many rewards..
Yes this feels wonderful.. I got on the scale yesterday morning still half asleep at 4:30 am and I just stood there looking at the numbers then I remembered oh yeah I got under 200lbs on Friday.. .. I expected to see a 2 in front of the numbers.. It felt good to see a 1... I think I have had the opposite thing going on for me though... I was anticipating the move to below 200 so bad that when people were asking my weight as I lost I would say things like I now weigh 120 oh no I mean 220..My hubby called it wishful thinking..and they say wishes dont come true. lol... I have been doing that for the last 3-4 months. well I guess it has been since I had the surgery.. I knew I would get here I just didnt think it would take this long.. 37lbs since surgery in November has been so frustrating and a real challange for me to keep on the right track... I know it is great that I have lost 104 lbs and I am under 200 but I started my weight loss in February of 2009 so it has taken me well over a year to do it.. I have a long way to go still and I get so scared sometimes that I wont get there.. but the encouragement of you and others on Oh really have helped me so much.
huggs..
