78 lbs lost!!!!

It was 2 years on Oct 13th since my LB, and my doctor suggested I lose 60lbs. And I've actually lost 78 lbs!!!! And I'm so happy and feel soo much better healthwise. My doctor (who is wonderful) thought because of other health problems thought that 60lbs would probably be all I could lose. I have MS so am not able to do much exercise. But I tried to adapt to my situation, and did as much as I was ABLE to exercise. On my way to the surgery I was 204lbs and am now 128lbs!! It's been 30yrs since I've weighed this. I've never considered myslef thin cause I'm only 5ft tall lol. When I've checked, I'm still considered overweight, but kinda doubt I'll lose anymore.

Anyway, alot of you here were very encouraging to me when I would hit my lows and was frustrated cause I didn't think I was losing fast enough. Wanted to say a big THANK YOU for that.

Thank you very much and I wish you well with your weight loss. I think the most frustrating thing is that it does take some time. It will be worth it though.
