Um, OH doesn't have a big enough grin smiley for this one...

Rosa...I am so happy for you!!!   I can't wait to see those pictures and hear all about the reactions from your friends!!! 

Thank you so much, Roz!  I don't know that I could've done it without you and the dedicated vets who cheer (and push) us on.

So happy for you Rosa!!!!!

I can't wait to see your outfit...I know you will be drop dead gorgeous!!!! You are already!

Aw, shucks!  Thanks, Char!

I am soooo happy for you!!!!!! I can feel  the positive energy and intense sense of accomplishment through your post.  This is HUGE.  Congratulations!!! 
 You deserve to celebrate your way into the new year to the MAX...I'm sure you are going to look amazing in whatever you wear.   I just realized you had your procedure in June....That's only 6 months... and you are sooo close to goal already
Un-freaking-believable!

Thanks!  Yeah, I've been sortof maniacally focused on getting as much loss in as I possibly could in the first 6 months.  Not that I'm doing anything differently now, but I just remembered reading that most loss for RNY comes in the first 6 months, so I wanted to get a lot in there.  Looking ahead to losing another 15 lbs seems so...doable!  It's the kind of thing "normal" people say all the time.  15 lbs seems much more attainable than 100 seemed, back then.  And when I get these 15 off (actually, it's only 14) I get my Century Apple, which I totally want! :)

It is unbelievable.  Thank y'all for believing in me.  I believe right back in you!

Oh Rosa, that is just AWESOME!!! I can just see you dancing around that scale! I cannot wait to see your pictures!

Thanks, Jenny!  You're just steps behind me - it's only been 6 months.  Soon (one way or another) you'll be making the same post!

Congrats Rosa! God is so good!
Thanks for all of your encouraging posts and words of wisdom and kindness. Hope to be seeing you soon in the 140's!
You are doing such an amazing job!!

Maria

Thanks, Maria!  Your progress is stunning!  

I still remember the day you went in for surgery.  You've come such a long way.  We both have!
