5 Months Out, 103 Lbs Down!

Sooooo.... I didn't meet my goal, folks. :( I did not make it to onederland before the new year... I made it to onederland on 1/4/12!!! That was the day that I had officially lost 100 lbs and the day that I officially hit 199.6 lbs!! I cannot believe it. Of course the scale hasn't moved again since then, but that is ok. I now have about 20-30 more lbs to lose and then I will be at goal!! Only 5 months after surgery!

I am so thankful and happy for this opportunity to enjoy life more than I ever have before. I feel better not only physically but emotionally, spiritually, romanticly..... :D. Smiles all around! I plan on spending the next few months hoping that my skin shrinks down and that I can lose 1 or 2 lbs a months until I hit goal.

Thank you to all of you who have given me kind words and encouragement. This site has been a very big blessing and a tremendous way for me to find will power when I felt weak. I love you all like family!!

Kim

PS current weight is now 197. :)
