After a long wait I hit 2 mini goals this morning :)!!!

I think because I've been cross country skiing so much over the past few months I have been sculpting fat into muscle and I have not been losing as much as I expected too. But today I finally hit the -60's (-61.8) AND I'm in the 250 weight catagory. Goodbye 260's FOREVER!!!! I love my band so much! I'll be doing a happy dance all day!

I need this forum so much!

Although I am happy with the amount of weight I have lost since being banded 4 months ago, deep down I don't think I believe I will ever get to my goal weight.

When I think of doing this for 3 weeks it can get overwhelming so I'm focusing on hour by hour.
