I'm just spewing thoughts that come into my head since i'm still sitting at home recovering from my surgery on Wednesday May 4th....

I was thinking to myself after reading some of the posts in Introductions and Pre-Op questions......

ok, don't be hatin' when i say this, I just think it's interesting, but.....

My GOAL weight is the same as most people's START weight.

There, i said it. There's nothing wrong with it, but it's kinda funny to me. The thought that one day I *might* be able to weigh 250 pounds seems just some unattainable dream. I would LOVE to weigh 250 pounds.

anyone else here feeling that 'twoderville' is reeeeaaaaalllly far away?

I hear ya sister!

My original goal was 250#, anything after that is just "frosting on the cake"! Hope to see twoderville in June.

Getting to twoderville is HUGE for me because I never again will have to say I am over 300 lbs. And now 280s are a few lbs away. Its a wonderful feeling!

Maybe I'll see twoderville at some point next year.

I'm sure going to work towards that goal.

i definately feel twoville is farrr away! i am half way there but still feels tooo far away!

ok, i know this is off topic, but it's my topic and i just need to kvetch.

i know, in my head, that the first 4-6 weeks after surgery is all about healing and blah de blah, blah...but since my surgery date, my scale hasn't budged. not up, but not down either. it just sits there, staring me in the face, taunting me, laughing at me.

grumble.

i do know it's because i'm healing/ i am on real food and not liquids or mushies, but dang it..........it's making me nutso. like i said, my head knows that this is normal, but my heart longs to be down even 1 pound.

i just wanted to vent.......sooooo there, i vented.
