First of all, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! It's 2008...the biggest year of my life so far! My life has changed already so much...I am post-op 13 days and already lost 20 pounds exactly!!! And, I fulfilled a goal for 2008 already! On January first I woke up, weighed myself (cuz I can't help but do it everyday now...I used to avoid the scale at all costs)...and it actually said 199.5lbs...OH MY GOD!!! I haven't seen that 1 at the front of my weight since 2003...So...Happy New Year to me! This was the best way to start off 2008!

Way to go, Marlen. It's a great feeling, I'm sure. I'm still a little ways away but so looking forward to it.

Hey,

Im with ya! Getting under 200 was my Xmas present!

It does feel good, although its a little eerie after all the years of struggling to see weight come off so fast now!
