I am 100 lbs. lighter!

I am really bad with the scale and weigh every morning.  It just helps keep me motivated, even though many people say not to weigh more than once a week.

So this morning, I did my normal weigh in and was delighted to find that I finally hit the 100 lbs. lost since surgery mark!! Very exciting.  It took a little longer than I would have liked because my weight loss really started slowing down a couple of months ago, to be expected.

From my highest weight I have lost 146 lbs., which doesn't even seem possible.  I don't feel like I have lost 100 lbs because I am still 254 lbs.  I would like to lose the 54 lbs by 11/18, which is my 1 year anniversary for my surgery.  My doctor would like me to be under 200 by then.  Not sure if I can do that but we will see.

For now, I am so excited about the 100 lbs.  This tool is amazing.  I do feel like I could have worked harder and done more to have lost more, but I also feel like I have to live this lifestyle for the rest of my life (if that makes any sense :) and want to enjoy every minute of it. 

It has been 8 months and 3 days since my surgery, and although people have lost weight quicker, I am not letting it bother me. 

I am also hoping this will spur me into exercising more. 

Anyway, thanks for reading and good luck with your journey!  I sure am enjoying mine!

Congratulations!!!!! That is a major achievement...I'm so glad you are enjoying it!

What a great accomplishment!!  You are doing amazing.
Congrats on reaching this milestone.

Congrats Kim!!!    Increasing exercise will help bump up the weight loss and will help you in maintenance also.

WTG, my surgery date (almost) sistah!  So proud of you girl :) 

WOW!! Congratulations and Keep it up! You are an inspiration!   Hope to join you in the century club eventually. =)

Thats nice, I cant wait to join the century club!

Woo Hoo! Congrats gurl, and way to go not comparing yourself to others- but welcome to our club!!

That is so GREAT!!!   I have been moving slowly also, but my surgeon is very happy with my progress.  KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!!!

I love your attitude! I have the same issue with the scale, I start the morning off on the scale everyday. I think I've weighed myself more in the last 4 1/2 months than I have in my entire life! LOL! Good luck on your new journey.
