I finally hit 150 lbs lost

After flirting with it for what seems like an eternity, much to my amazement the scale said 174.8 this morning! It might not say it again tomorrow but for today I'll take it! Here are my before and afters! 6/08- 324 lbs and 10/11- 174 lbs

Congrats! You look great!

Wow! Congrats. Any tips? Just going through yo yo weight loss right now. I am almost 4 months post op. Thanks

Wow! that is awesomeness! Congrats to you :D

Way to go, Cindy! And congrats for sticking with it all this time. You deserve to be very proud of your achievement!

One of the things I've started doing, now that I'm close to my goal, is taking a picture of the scale numbers when I hit a new low weight. It's great inspiration to stick wih things, and to try to get the number to go even lower. Funny how in the beginning the weight just fell off, but now that the goal is in sight, it seems to move slower and slower... ;)

Keep up the great work!

Dave

Congratulations Cindy! That is a fantastic amount of weight to lose and you look fabulous!

Thanks everybody. It's been a long road but one I would travel again. I'm so thankful for the success that I have had. I realize that I could gain that weight just as quickly as I lost it so I don't take my success for granted for a single minute. My first thought when I saw the number this morning was "OMG, I have to go update my ticker!" The next thing I did was put on workout clothes and head for the gym!

Wow Cindy, you continue to amaze me! The fact that you have stuck with this and are showing us newbies that long term success is possible really inspires me. Thanks for sharing your success with all of us and giving us the inspiration we need to keep on going.

Thank you. I'm a big believer in paying it forward. I want every single one of us to be successful and wipe out obesity! But on a selfish note, coming here and reading the posts of others in every step of their journey helps to inspire me and keep me on track.

"Weigh" to go Cindy! You are an inspiration for those of us just beginning.

Congrats! CIndy. You do look fabulous! I know that you feel it, too, because that big smile and great attitude! Best wishes your way. Karen
