No longer obese!!

[andreanoelle 0]

Hi everyone,

I just thought I would share some exciting news! I had set a personal goal to no longer be classified as obese before the end of the year. For me, that meant 175 pounds and a BMI of 30. Well, today I hit that goal! And I still have a month until the end of the year! I'm soooo ridiculously happy. I was trying on old clothes yesterday and I was swimming in my old pants...I can't believe how different my body is! I'm still shocked when I look in the mirror some days! I'm not there yet, I still have 30 pounds to go until my goal weight, but it has all happened so quickly that I just have to pinch myself sometimes. Anyways, I was just in a great mood and thought I would share with all of you. Before I joined this site, I just wasn't sure if surgery was for me....boy am I glad I listened to all of you! Thanks for changing my life!!

Thanks everyone! Yolanda - I guess I just follow the advice that my surgeon gave me - get your Protein in first, drink lots of Water, and stay active. I've been doing yoga and some abs/core work 2 or 3 times a week, and that really seems to help. But overall, this is so much different than anything that I've done before. I actually feel full now...that's a first for me! Feel free to message me if you have any other specific questions...keep up the good work everyone! This is almost fun! Haha...
