So many firsts...
I am about 4 1/2 months post lap band. Today I had my first "true" pb/sliming episode...don't want to do that again anytime soon.
I also hit a personal "first" goal and have lost 50 lbs. Now, I am on my way to my "second" personal goal...that is 75 lbs. (I am setting my goals in 25 lb. increments).
I took a new job in Omaha, NE...it didn't work out, so, I am now back in TX. The weather is supposed to be beautiful this weekend, so, I will start walking...I hate any kind of exercise...so, this is another "first"...my desire to go for a walk.
While in Omaha, I went out to eat w/my sister a few times and discovered that I don't enjoy eating as much as I thought I did...
My cousin bought me a pullover shirt for HER b-day (I found out when my cousin has a b-day, EVERYONE in her household gets a gift!) The shirt is a 26/28...that and 3x's are what I have worn forever...there was NO snugness, no pulling...in fact, the shirt kind of "hung" on me! YIPPEE!!! I am almost ready to go to a 24...
It may take me longer than others to reach the 100lb. club, but, I will reach it! At 268, this is the least I have weighed in probably 20 years! Still a ways to go, but I am going to get there!
I am such a loser and proud to say it!

Way to go! The NSV's are what keep me motivated and going. The SV's definitely help too. You are doing a great job and you will get there.

Everything happens for a reason so, I am taking it a step at a time. I can do it! 
You're doing great! :) It's so awesome that you can feel a difference in your clothing. Before you know it you'll be shopping for a much smaller size! ;) And who cares how long it takes you to get to the 100 club - we're all on this journey together and we're here to cheer each other on! I'm proud of your accomplishment!
