Just wanted to share this. My surgery was 6/26/12. My progress has been slow but steady.

I have set small goals for myself and I hit one today. I have lost 40 pounds exactly!!!! My preop weight was 362, and I'm 322 today! It's moments like this that push me to conquer my next set of goals.

My next goal weight is 312 for 50 pounds lost, then 299 to put me under 300. I can't remember the last time I was under 300 pounds and now that is within my reach! I'm so happy I could cry!

Wow! And you should be happy! That is fantastic! Your hard work is paying off. Slow and steady is great, and more importantly, it is working! Very happy for you. Treat yourself to some pampering today. You deserve it! Congratulations.

I know first hand how excited you are! I started my journey @ 377 lbs! The amount of weight we have to lose is hard to wrap your head around. Like you I made myself a set of mini goals and fast forward 23 months later I am almost there.... the time has just flown!

You are doing a great job! DO something nice for yourself today!!!

I LOVE the mini goals! I can relate to you I was super super thrilled when I hit under 300 lbs. My next mini goal is 250. I think I will cry when I hit this weight, no really I mean it....

Congratulations and keep up the great work!!!

Congratulations !
