5 wks out and I'm in the 30s!

I calculated my BMI with my new current weight today and I am in the thirties! It was 38 and I was almost at 45 on surgery day. That's a six point drop in six weeks which just ROCKS!

Thanks for reading- I was so excited that I had to share. :D

    That is fantastic! It's great to see such wonderful positive progress on here, since often times there is so much posted about struggle and difficulties. It's all very relevant, but the positive stuff is inspirational :) Congrats!

    Thanks all!

    @Purple Tulip: Other than feeling crummy the first few days and a mental rough day on day 5, I have felt fabulous. I think it's hard for me to say that a lot on the boards since I want to be sensitive to those that are struggling, but you raise a good point- that it appears it's difficult for all, if those of us who aren't struggling don't speak up. :)
