100lbs down and counting!(35lbs to go)

So today marks my 100lbs weight loss in this journey I started march 15th! WOOHOO! I am STOKED!! (Mind you I did lose the first 95lbs in 5.5 months (August) and have somwhat slacked the last 2 months...gave my body a break if anything!) But I WILL reach my goal! I PROMISE you that! 35lbs to go.

It's amazing how I notice little things here and there like how thin my hands are or how thin I look when I catch my reflection suddenly in a plate glass window. One day my 18yr old son and his friend came home while I was standing on the porch. He said

"God mom, stop looking so skinny,you're freaking me out! We didn't even know it as you on the porch!" I LIVE for days like that, let me tell you! Of course there are THOSE other days where I feel bad for still being so fat and I try to chase those negative thoughts away but old habits do die hard. I'm a work in progress!

Oh happy day!!! I'm gonna savor it just for a little while. :-) Thanks everyone on here for their amazing support. Couldn't have made it this far without you!

So cool! Thank u for sharing a happy success!

That is awesome! Congratulations! Can you share some tips on how you lost so much weight so quick? I am losing SO slowly. I am 9 1/2 weeks out and I keep hitting stalls and when I do lose its not much! Any advise would be greatly appreciated!!!! Thanks!!!

Congratulations, Miters! We are so close together in our journeys that I feel I understand exactly how you feel. :) I just hit 100 lost (including the 12 preop) so I know how amazingly awesome your world is right now! And, I know you'll knock off those last 35 lbs. It's just a matter of time!

Yay!

Congratulations! I posted a quick note on your profile, but yay for such a terrific accomplishment! Must feel wonderful!!

Are you having a problem with excess skin after losing your weight that fast? If so, what have you heard on getting it removed or do you plan to do so?
