Chancie,

Way to go!!! What a great goal to reach, and during the holidays, no less. Keep up the good work. And keep updating us on your progress. It's so motivating. Congratulations.

I just have to tell you all how much I appreciate all your wonderful words of encouragement and support........ actually in tears this afternoon.

I knew after I had the surgery I would get here..... just wasn't sure of how long it would take me. But it really hasn't taken that long. I still have a ways to go... but it's now a reality!

36 pounds to goal- seems ok now......I CAN and WILL make it!!

And yes... being the scale ho that I am... I got on this afternoon...... am 198.6!!!!

Thank you all for being here for me!!

I really did get a bit emotional ...... tears of joy.... knowing I did the right thing...... just wasn't sure I'd be where I am right now!

160........................... Here I come!!!!

So maybe my official weigh in tomorrow will be 198 too!!

Ladies and Gentlemen...............

I am now...........................................................

198 pounds!!!!!!

I'm UNDER 200!! I can't believe it!! it seemed so strange to start with the number "one"!

156 pounds gone before my 10th month surgiversary!!

My BMI is 30........ I must have figured wrong... so I just went back and tried again.... and I have to lose 2 more pounds to be "overweight"

It realy is a wild ride......... and it has gone by soooooo fast!!

I havn't been this happy in a long time,and didn't realize how unhappy I really was!

I haven't felt this good in years, or so healthy!

Just to be able to bend over and pick up something I dropped, something everyone takes for granted, was such a struggle for me before.

This truely has been a life changing and "life saving" surgery!

So just a note to all of you just starting this journey- it can be frustrating at times, but it is truely worth it all!

Thank you all for your support and friendship-I'm so glad I found this site and met so many wonderful people here!

Wow chancie, I totally teared up and cried for you!:drool: That is so wonderful~! We struggle so hard with this weight issue! It's is such a glorious thing to hear how successful you are and how far you have come. Congratulations my friend! Keep up the totally FANTASTIC job!:lol0:
