Here is a picture of my precious little nephew. Who has already completely stolen my heart and he's just barely over 24 hrs old but he's so adorable.

Non Surgery - (HW/CW/GW) - - 247/173/150(first major goal)
Hey everyone it's been a while since I've checked in. I've been so busy lately working tons of hours and my daughter is graduating high school Monday so getting ready for that has also been stressful. My weight has been doing great, I'm doing the curves approach which is to stay within a 3 pound range of your goal weight. So since I hit my goal weight on March 21st I have done great and I am staying between 145 - 148 without allowing myself to go over 148 pounds and it's worked wonderful. I had been so scared I wouldn't be able to maintain, but i'm so happy that I can actually do that this time.
I am in the process of planning a quick trip to Florida in 2 weeks we hadn't planned to go for at least another month. But when my brother's baby was born yesterday, they had to end up putting him in ICU it's looking good though so far all tests are coming back normal, (they thought he might have been having seizures when he was born), but it's looking like he hadn't had a seizure and his oxygen level was just a little low. They're just waiting on one more test to come back tomorrow and if it comes back normal they'll be able to take him home. So, we are wanting to get down and visit the little guy as soon as possible.
Hope you are all doing great on your weight loss journeys.

Use it as motivation to keep going - keep reminding yourself how good it felt.

Congratulations on your victory...like lots of people keep saying, it's not always about the scale, sometimes we lose inches and it's nice when clothes start fitting looser. Have fun wearing your new dress

I am just so ecstatic right now, I thought I would share it with all of you!
I saw my doctor and found that I had gained 10 lbs after my recent 6 day hospital stay. (obviously, that is not the reason why I am so ecstatic!
)
I understood how and why it happened, (eating and minimal movement) but I was still rather disappointed. To cheer myself up, I went to Fashion Bug to buy myself this long black dress I had been eyeing for quite some time. I grabbed my usual size, 3x, and went into the dressing room to try it on. It was TOO BIG!!!!!!!! Even after my 10 lb weight gain, the 3x dress was too big!!!
I bought the dress (they didn't have a 2x and I can get this one tailored) and left the store happy as a clam!
You all have been there for me through my struggles, so I just thought I would share my rare moments of joy with you too.
Take care, all of you, and God bless!

Do you see the glass as half empty or half full? I say, what difference does it make--I paid for a full glass,so either way I am getting jipped!!!

Hi Pal! Thanks for posting the thread.
I'm proud and celebrating that I have not chicken'd out and I'm going on my trip! My first solo flight in over 10 years!!!!!!!! At least I'll fit nice and comfortably in the seat!
I'm not taking my lap top so I'll have limited access (only via iphone) but will try to check in, if I can't I'll catch up with you when I return.
Have a great weekend and a wonderful week.
Keep up the good work.

I'm leaving on a Jet Plane.........
Up, Up and Away........
LOL thanks for indulging me.
Well this is it.......I leave for home tomorrow. I'm very excited about seeing everyone. I had my "refresher" session with the therapist this morning so I hope I'll be fine getting on the plane. So far I'm feeling ok.
I'll try to post just to say I made it safely and all went well....if I can't get logged on I'll let you know all about it when I return next week.
Have a great weekend.
