I am at goal, well under, actually. I got there last month, but didn't see my surgeon till this morning, and he noted in my chart "Under goal weight"

How sweet is that?

Way to go Sammee!!! You're an inspiration for all of us. It must feel soooo good.

CONGRATS! Yay for you!

What a wonderful, fantastic, inspirational feeling.

I can only hope I ever get to that point... it will be a sweet victory indeed.

CONGRATS!!!!!

You must be sooo happy and you are such an inspiration to others.

:clap2::clap2::clap2:

Sam, you are an inspiration. Under goal and think... you will lose more with all the skin and tissue they remove! I've already had a tummy tuck preband... just remember while you are recovering that it will all be worth it! On the second day I thought I made a huge mistake... now I think it was the second best medical decision I've made (the lap band being the first!)

Congrats to you for your journey. Under goal what a dream come true....

Awesome work Sammee. How great are you going to be feeling in a few weeks?

LOL That is anyones guess! This time next week? Like a cat that has been run over. Twice.

After that? I am pretty confident that within the month I will be back to my old self, IKWIM. I tend to bounce back from surgery pretty quick, and I am healthier now than I have been in 10 years.

Thank you all for your kind words. While I am not trying to "inspire" anyone (I tend to inspire the worst in people, lol) I do remember thinking "If she can do it, so can I" when I saw a post like this...

So thank you all again. I will be posting some before and during (I am not an after till the TT) in my journal later on today.

WTG, What an awesome accomplishment

Congratulations, I can't wait to someday be making a similar post!

Good luck on the TT - let us know how it went.

Congratulations, Sammee!
