The scale vistory is that I weighed 229 this morning - which means I am now simply 'obese' - no longer morbidly obese, no longer super morbidly obese either Overweight here I come!

Non scale victory - Sunday night the family was sitting on the sofa all watching Breaking Bad and I realized that my legs were crossed - I dont think I have been able to do that in at least 15 years. Slowly the big stomach is going away - when we would go to restaurants I was too big to fit in a booth, now there is plenty of room, plenty of room with the steering wheel in the car as well.

The clothes are starting to get really big - so big that my husband tells me that I cant go out of the house in 80 percent of my wardrobe lol.

I never thought I would be a success, I always thought that this is something I will never win, this fight for a healthy weight. Now it feels possible!

Congratulations girl! I am really happy for you. Let's get this post bumped up so others see it!

Congrats!!!!

Congratulations! This is what we all want to see. God bless.

Congrats, what a wonderful accomplishment!!

Congrats on your success! I too felt like I could never be a success, even with VSG. Now that I'm knocking (.2 away) on the door to 50 pounds gone, I feel like I can be successful. Keep up the good work!

Thanks for all of the encouraging words - this board has been gold to me during this whole process, I learn from everyone here - thank you!

What a great NSV. Keep up the good job.

HOORAAAAYYYY!!!!

Wow so liberating. Great job!
