I am No Longer Obese!!
I don't think I have posted a milestone for myself..so I will do this one! I AM FINALLY NO LONGER OBESE...I am only OVERWEIGHT!!! WOOOHOOOO!!!!! This was one of my major goals and after several weeks of stall...AF...and more slow loss...I have finally gone under 180. WoooHooo!!!
Even better was that I saw my sister...and for the first time in my LIFE...I am smaller than she is!!! It's a miracle people...a splendid miracle!!

I hope those strictures are a distant memory and getting smaller in the rearview mirror as you drive down this path and continue to be successful. You are amazing.

You know Dyann...I would take a stricture 10x a year for life....as long as I can feel this good!! I am floored every time something monumental happens like this. As for now though...yeppers...it's a thing of the past and I am LOVIN' the VIEW Ahead!! I can't wait to see 150!!!
Thanks Lisa and Kechara...I am pretty jazzed...in case you couldn't tell. LOL!! You are both doing awesome! Lisa I have followed your story since before your surgery. Your transformation is just plain amazing too!! You should all be immensely proud of yourselves as well.

Way to go Zen!
That goal was so important to me, and I know how important it is to all of us. Congrats, Zen--I know it's been slow, but like the turtle, you'll win!
