I_love_Hello Kitty

For the first time in about 20 years (minus 2 weeks during my wedding which I temporarliy lost weght on phen fen)
I'm in ONDERLAND!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had no idea I'd make it there before the end of the year!!! What a wonderful feeling. I know all of you on this forum know the joy of meeting these milestones...its been unphathomable to me til this point.

To top it off, though, I weigh less than my 6'0 tall husband for the first time since we were married 11.5 years ago!!! Its about time don't you think...considering I am 5"4"!! That in and of itself feels great (he weights about 203).

I went to the gym this morning and I feel great....so different than I did two months ago when I was vomitting all the time from that stricture.

Thank you everyone for your support on my journey so far...I hope it continues going strong....my kids need me strong and healthy!!

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!

That is awesome news! Very happy for you I remember your earlier threads when you were not doing well after surgery. This gives me great hope for the post-op side!

Congratulations again!! What a nice feeling for the NEW YEAR!!

Congratulations Simone! I was hoping to make the same goal for Christmas, but with 7 pounds to go, I don't think I'm going to make it (but I bought myself a new ring to celebrate the upcoming event anyway). I am soooo happy for you. I know you really didn't think it was possible to get past that awful stricture phase, but look at you now! Way to Go!!!!!!!

~sigh~ I'm with you, Robin.. I was hoping to make it for the new year, but I'm 6 lbs away, and every lb seems to take about a week to come off now. But at least we'll both be there shortly!

And congrats, my fellow Hello Kitty obsessor!
