Today I stepped on the scale at home and it said 199. I am under 200 which hasn't happened in 9 years. Small milestone but still in shock.

Surgery date 10/25 starting weight 289, now 199!!!

That is no small victory!!! Onederland?!? Oh yes, I am headed that way!!

I am not and have never been a fitness person. I focus on my portions and eat slowly. I walk instead of workout hardcore. Head hunger is the hardest part in my opinion. If I get a craving or want a bigger portion I wait before actually eating something. I remind myself that this isn't Ethiopia, the food isn't going anywhere, if I am still hungry in 30 mins I can eat another few bites, but usually by that time, I m not hungry. I also try to have a realistic goal in mind. I'm never gonna be a fitness model, I am going to be a healthy version of the woman I have always been.
