Goal weight reached in 8 months!

At 8 months (surgery was july10) I have lost 136 lbs and have reached my goal of not being overweight! I think I'm going to go for 15 more lbs but can't explain the satisfaction!

During the pre phase the psych told me that to expect to lose 100 lbs in the first year was unreasonable. I would love to go tell him my numbers!!!

It's a great feeling to not stand out unless you want to and know that when people look at you they see you, not your plus size!!!

I will never regret this decision :)

I am inspired by your journey. My surgery is scheduled for July 15th. I hope by this time next year, I'll be experiencing similar results. Congrats on your hard work and determination!
