Today is so bittersweet to me! I reached my initial goal of 150.0 lbs (I was 217.1 surgery day) today! I am thrilled beyond words, but I'm scared too. This is the lowest weight I have been my entire adult life! I have dropped weight a couple times before (the lowest being 155.0 lbs), but always gained back and then some. I want to maintain my weightloss! I also however, am scared of losing too much weight! I was revised (band-to-sleeve 6/15/12) and I honestly feel like all I do is eat! Not a lot each time, but still! Plus I don't exercise (I know this is terrible, but its the truth). I really don't want to get below 140ish...

Wow first off I want to congratulate you on your accomplishment. It must feel amazing to be at this goal. I have not reached mine yet, but the small goals that I have met have felt incredible. It has been years since I have been so successful(I am a band to sleeve too). Just take a deep breath and relish in this moment. Go try on all those small clothes, take your measurements, enjoy how far you have come!! You will and are maintaining this weight do not worry you are a success!!!!

YAAAAAAAAY YOU! Congratulations on reaching your goal--right on the nose, too! I agree that you should first take some time to bask in the glow of what you've accomplished. I've also heard that some people do lose more than they'd initially planned, but that at some point, their weight will "bounce" back up to closer to their goal. I can't speak on it personally since I haven't reached my goal yet, but I'm sure others will chime in...

YaHOOO! Way to go on reaching goal. Try and enjoy all you have accomplished, its a big deal put the worries away for awhile, you deserve to enjoy!

Congratulations!

Omg so inspiring! I am having revision band to sleeve on dec 10th, nervous and excited all at once! I've gain back another 40lbs since April with band complications. I can't wait to get it off and then some!

Thanks all!! You are right! I should relish this moment and save the worrying for another time

What a super day for you!! Very happy for you. Keep up the good work and stay focused.

Saweet!! So inspiring. Can't wait to get there. You look great.

Awesome! Congratulations on getting to your goal! Enjoy it, you worked hard to get where you are! I am dreaming of being at goal weight!!!

That's so awesome! Great job!

Now you move on to the next phase and another adventure.

And exercise! It's seriously good for you.
