I finally hit below 200...YIPPEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 199.5

This has taken me SO long. (I had surgery on June 7.) I started at 222.5. SO I have lost 23 pounds. MUCH less than I would have wanted by now but I am SO excited. And I am actually glad it has taken awhile because I have been able to get used to the new system. Frankly, I have had some SERIOUSLY stressful times (like not talking to MOM for several weeks and fighting with her in a way I never had before) and yet I didn't gain and was not able to turn to food like I used to, THANK GOODNESS. This is a BIG success for me and it has been HARD! Having to sit through anixety and stress without eating has really been a struggle but I have done it and I (hopefully) am on the other side of the pain for now. However, when the rain/pain comes again (life is just that way), I will be ready to conquer the stress and not turn to food in an unheathly way.

So..on to the next goal.

Thanks so much to everyone on this board. I SERIOUSLY could not do it without you!
