6 Months today - boy that went quick!

I am exactly 6 months as of today. OMG what a difference these month shave made - a new life. I have been very lucky and other than a few minor glitches, very minor, I have sailed through. I am 107 down since surgery, 133 altogether. I am no longer the couch potato, I am no longer making excuses why I can't go out or be around large groups( I was a large group!). I now run, love to clothes shop, I no longer dread booths in restaraunts. I am back to wearing make-up, having my nails done and just generally feeling feminine. I did my first 5K, and have my second in 10 days. I am hoping to drop another 60lbs, but even if I never get that low I am more than thrilled to still be losing. 347/321(surgery/214/ ?

congratulations. you are an inspiration for all of us. lorie

Lisa~ Congratulations to you!! I am scheduled for surgery on September 6th. My husband is a runner, and I have always wanted to join him. Your success has me hopeful. Good luck to you and keep up the GREAT work ~ Deb

Wow, great to hear your success. I have surgery in just 18 more days - I can't wait at this point! Finding message boards has been a Godsend for easing my fears. I hope to have great news to report at my 6-Month anniversary, too! Cheers, Carol

Carol & Deb - you guys will do great. I could never have conceived of how much this would change my life.I can't wait to hear about your journeys. I am so happy for both of you - GOOD LUCK!! LOL - I was on TV? I hope it was not at the 5K - OMG me running is not a pretty site even with 133lbs gone.
