Well, it finally happened after the biggest granddaddy of all stalls!!! I am now down 81 lbs and woke up this morning and weighed. When the scale read 299.4 I rubbed my eyes to be sure they just weren't blurry!!!

Sorry I've been AWOL lately from the board. Been busy with life...

~ I started back to school for my RN refresher course.

~ I went to a bariatric support group get together. It was high Protein, low carb and great company. The hostess is about 2 yrs out and she gave me a PILE of gorgeous designer clothes. Some very nice work suits and dress clothes. Some fit now, some will fit soon and some down the road. It was such a thrill. I was really tickled.

Well, that's all the news from me!

Take care everybody!

Welcome back and congratulations!! =)

Welcome to Twoderville!!!!! It's a nice place, enjoy your stay here... however - don't overstay your welcome.

Believe me, you're talking to the Grand Mama of all squatters...

You're doing amazing, CONGRATS!!

Hooray!! Welcome to Twoderville -- I hope you and I have a very short time here together And so great that you were able to get such nice clothes!!

Oh, the clothes are great! And being able to actually wear some of them now is soooooo awesome!

I must confess, I never really had a stall until 2 weeks ago. Then I began wrestling with the same 4 lbs. All the while, I was getting smaller in my clothes, but just couldn't get past that 300 lb milestone. Finally, it broke this morning. I was quite happy to see that scale move. Even though my rational mind was trying to tell me not to sweat the numbers, it's hard. You want that quantitative gratification for the hard work. And finally, it happened!

Congrats

A huge congratualtions! And how exciting about the clothes! There should be a better system in place for clothes sharing! I've already got a big box gathering of things that no longer fit! And as opposed to past "diets" when I always saved my "big" clothes just in case, now I want to get rid of them forever!
