So, its a bit early for a true "success story," since I just had surgery on the 21st... but... over the last few years, every time I've dieted, I've stalled, gotten frustrated, and given up at 300 pounds. Each time I gained more weight back, of course.

I started the journey at 377lbs in May. I was 303 on my surgery date. This morning, I left the threes forever! I am officially in Twoderville and plan on staying for awhile... until I get to the promised land: Onederland!

It's never too early to Celebrate, in my opinion, especially when you conquer something that gave you trouble in the past! I too have stayed "stuck" at certain weights and then slowly gained.

I recently hit 299 and celebrated like mad (lowest weight since 2007!) and today I finally hit 290 (I swear that 9 pounds took forever) - to make 30 pounds off since surgery. I'm so excited for the next pound - haven't been in the 280s in a longggggg time.

Keep it up! It only gets better from here!
