Gone Forever

Good Morning,

I woke up this morning and found I am 50 lbs down from my highest weight ever (23lbs since surgery) and I am at my 4th of July goal already, guess I should have been more ambitious with it. 50 lbs never to be seen again, I lost the equivalent of one of my dogs basically. I still have a long way to go. This small amount from the total I need to lose has made such a big difference in my life already. My feet don't hurt as much, my clothes are fitting better(can't quite go down in sizes yet) just an overall better feeling. And, my treadmill should arrive in 2 weeks.

Despite some frustrations with the pace and portions I am now eating, it's a big adjustment, I am so glad I finally had this done.

So happy for you, 50 lbs is alot, just try carrying a 50 lb bag of dog food around and you'll wonder how you ever did it. Hang in there it becomes second nature, with the portions and it only gets better!!
