today is an exciting day for me! october 20th of last year, my birthday, i weighed in at 308! my surgery was december 7th and i had lost roughly 20 pounds from my birthday to surgery date! well today my friends, 5 months after my life changing surgery, i weighed in at 207!!!!!! i really didnt think this day would get here, and here it is! i would like to lose about 50 more pounds but that will happen sooner than later i suppose!! i just wanted to share this happy moment with everyone and hope that some pre-op and early post-op people see this post and are reassured that this surgery is the best decision you can make for yourself! i have absolutely no regrets! our family is headed to the beach next month and i am actually excited about bathing suit shopping!! i get to wear something cute and not look like a granny out on the beach!!!!!!!!
