Default Just wanted to share my excitment.

Well on sept. 4th I went to Florida for a week and a half. And the 4th is also my 3 month post-op date from surgery. So right before I had left I weighed 318.8lbs. which put me at 98lbs lost so far. But I just weighed myself today when I got back home from the trip and now weigh 311.6lbs. which means that I lost 105lbs so far.. I am so excited.
