I did it! I did it! I did it! I can't believe actually did it!

So those 34 pounds I was required to loose before my second appointment well they are officially gone!! I am down to 450!! I can't believe I actually did it! It's been a rough 8 weeks. I fell down a few times but I always got back up again. I am now waiting on the nurse to call me to see if I can get my second appointment. I don't have high hopes yet I figure the doctor is going to try to throw me another curve ball. But fingers and toes crossed and down on my knees praying that he lets me start the rest of the process. I'm so ready to get my date and start the rest of my new life!! Thank you to everyone here that has said kind words to me!! I really appreciate everything! I also want to thank everyone who posts here. I enjoying reading everyone's stories and advice. It really helps a newbie out on what to expect!
