This morning I was down 5.6, which put me over the top for reaching my goal weight. I was a little nervous going into WI because I encountered drama ALL day yesterday. The next six weeks will be a challenge, I'm sure, but I think I'm up to it.
I would like to thank everyone on this board for their support these last few years and hope to eventually meet all of you at the goal line!
I am leaving shortly to donate platelets today but wanted to share the good news. Happy Sunday!

Just checked your profile.....171.2lb lost with WW? You are my idol....and also my inspiration!!! Not enough words to congratulate you.....what a tremendous job you've done. You can be so proud with your perseverance. To hit my goal weight (any goal weight) with WW is my dream. It is so encouraging to see someone like yourself take on that challenge and meet (beat) it. I know the next six weeks maybe difficult, but I have every faith that you will do it and become a Lifetime member!!
Go Dee!!

Hi Sherrie ... Just to make full disclosure the 171 is my total loss. I lost 159 on WW. Thank you for your well wishes!
Congrats, Dee. If you're like me, you'll enjoy it for a day, then start obsessing about maintenance ...but enjoy it, okay?
I weigh in today and it's not gonna give me a good push-- had my TOM this week, which means the scale won't budge for a while: I do so hate that! We'll see...I'm at my college weight at the moment.

A few weeks ago I got turned down for surgery after appealing 2 previous denials. I cried for days. I had grown to believe that I could not do it without surgery.
When I got dehydrated from the blubbering, I got a hold of myself and went to WW. I was bummed because everyone there needs to lose less than 50lbs but the leader was very supportive. I did the plan and started reading the non surgical forum. What an INSPIRATION to read your post. Now I am excited and motivated. Thank YOU!!!
