Finally.......it's happened to me!



Recommended Posts

I am happy to report that I weigh less than my husband now. Geesh, that really bugged me! I am in the eighties now and that is a tremendous relief. On my way to the seventies next, one mini-goal at a time. Meanwhile, I feel so good in my body. Yesterday I spilled on my top and had to run into a store to buy a shirt. Grabbed a medium and it fit perfectly. Medium! Imagine that -- me? Yippee! I figured while I was at it I'd peruse the clearance section. Came up with a nice pair of summer pants in size ten. Last November I was an 18 (sometimes a 20) so this is tremendous progress. So pleased with how everything is going. It doesn't feel hard. I'm not on a diet. I'm becoming addicted to exercise. So many victories! The ongoing support of this forum has helped tremendously. It can take a while to get into the groove but boy, once there it's like soaring.....

Hope your excitement continues, friend :)

@@SarahRN482 I just looked at your stats -- way to go. You are really rocking this thing! And the smoking, too. So happy for you.

@@SillyAuntDi hi there friend, I knew you'd do just fine on that cruise! Size 12s sure are a nice welcome home present!

You inspire me, too @rose2014......

@@chrissy10 glad mine weighs 200! Not that it's a competition. Once I heard a description of a suspect on the radio: large white male 250 pounds at about 5'6' Oh great -- I weighed the dame as a great big guy! Eeek!

@@Bandista you are funny. I have never weighed less than my husband and we have been together for over 15 years. I think he has a gained a few pounds since my surgery because he eats my leftovers lol. I tell him its all part of my plan. If he gains and I keep losing then it will happen faster lol.

Woohoo! Haha you're just like me. I was so darn happy when my weight went down to the point that I was finally LIGHTER than my husband. I think it's been 5-6 years that I could not sit on his lap. Now I'm 11 lbs lighter than him, Yay!!

That has to be a great feeling. Hopefully I will achieve the same goal soon. My husband is right around my goal weight so even for us to be the same would be a victory!! Congrats to you!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
