Good morning Everyone!!! Time to pony up to the scale

Random Thoughts:

-Had a great support group meeting last night. Focused on nutrition and reading food labels. They had a guess speaker from Shoprite (Supermarket chain in the North East). Didn't know that some stores have a nut that will walk the aisles (complimentary) to help you make healthy choices. This particularly lady used to work with bariatric patients so she was able to customise the presentation towards our dietary needs.

They have a campaign around Living Right:

Thanks for the link Mike...now I just need someone to sit with me on the couch while I place my FreshDirect orders so those lentil chips don't jump in my cart. ;)

I'm 147.5 today, but 149.5 with clothes on...and my appt isn't til 2, so it's unlikely that I'll be that magic 150 today at the surgeon's office since I refuse to starve until then. But I'm ok with it because I know that I'm less than 150 at home. :)

HW: 280; SW: 255; GW1: 150; CW: 155.

I am very proud! I'm down at least 120lbs in a year...and that's amazing. It's all about perspective, right?

I'll report back on the "official" weight. :)
