6 Months today!

Today is my 6th month since surgery. For those of you about to go through the surgery I can tell you the time just fly's by! It is crazy to think that in only 6 months so many things have changed. I actually weigh less now than I did in High School. I hope that the next 6 months fly by like the first and that I can say by the end of a year out that I am at goal!

Starting Weight was 362 and today I weigh 250. That is 112 pounds gone. My goal is 230 so I have 20 pounds to go!

The goal could possibly be a moving target. But 230 gets me out of obese. Plus I have no idea what I will look like at 230 hell I didn't know what 250 was going to looks like. At my heaviest ever I was at 418 so really my total loss is 168!

You look great! Way to go! :)

I know what you mean..my highest was 380..I knew I was big...but not that big....I wince each time I think of it....Oh man...I would say LOL too, but it hurts too much to know I was that big and didn't even realize it :(

I feel the same really I knew I was big but until I looked at some pictures compared to where I am now I guess I really just didn't know how big I was.
