Not at goal yet, but finally getting closer...

Hello, all. I am not at my goal yet, but I wanted to post this here on the success stories forum. After my last fill, a few weeks ago, weight finally started coming off again. I'd been at a plateau (up and down the same 5-7 lbs for 3 1/2 years) after losing the first 50 or so lbs pretty quick. Now, I'm happy to say that I am in a new weight level on the scale. When I saw that '4' pop up, I was soooooo happy. Haven't seen that in 19 years!! So that, is my success I am sharing. I am 34lbs from my goal!!!!!! So close! I'm doing it!!!!

Exciting isn't it? I've dropped 12 lbs in the last 2.5 months myself and I'm reinvigorated once again. Well done No More.

Yippee! So happy for you....

Some of the best success stories are second-time-around success stories. This encourages me that I can always try again and get back on track with my band. Let's face it. Many of us have lost a big chunk of weight in the past, only to start gaining again and then giving up. To see folks here shake off the "can'ts" and get back to basics and succeed at it is truly inspiring. And brave. Thanks for sharing.

You. Are. Awesome !!!!!!!!!
