Yesterday I went to my doctor's appt. It has been exactly 7 months and 3 weeks that I started my journey. I was 251 lbs and I am now 142 lbs. I can't believe I lost 109 lbs. This time went so fast for me and such a learning experience. I only hope that I will be able to maintain my weight for the rest of my life. Thank God I can always go to the doctor's office to get a fill that I still have never received. My problem is keeping it off and at least I am able to use this tool as my maintenance program. My journey really has only just begun. The scary part is ahead of me.

I am trying to get a before and after picture on here and I am having difficulties. I have to wait in the morning to see if someone at work can help me out with this.

I gotta go !
