Had to share...want to shout!

Before I started this whole process I saw my little scale tick up to 265. By the time my PCP had started me on the path, and I got to my surgeon I had worked the weight down to 260...ugh! Was banded the 19th of April, and this morning on the scale I saw a number I couldn't have imagined....225! The wildest part is the hope that its not the lowest my little scale will go, as I am still only 6 weeks post-op and have had no fills to date....it feels like a dream come true!!! I feel so blessed to have this opportunity to get my life back in control and to actually live!

    That's so wonderful! Congrats!!! Believe me, I was in your shoes once and thought every number that was a dream come true was the lowest I'd go, but the miracle continues when you follow the program (which it looks like you're doing), so get ready for Onederland, kiddo!!! You aren't that far off :-)!

    Congrats again!
