Just about 2 weeks from my one year surgery date and I hit my goal.....I feel awesome.....

Congratulations!!! I wish I could say that. I am just a month beyond my one year date and am not at goal. Any advice???

You must be so excited!!

Congrats ! That's awesome picture please : )

WOOT WOOT!!!!

I haven't been on the boards for a while and when I get on I see THIS GREAT NEWS???? Way to go! I'm so happy for you.

@esskay77 -- work the plan. Eat your Protein first. Avoid carbs except fruits/veggies. Exercise consistently (weight bearing and cardio). If you're off track, talk to your doctor and nutritionist. I hit my goal at 5-1/2 months following the plan exactly. I'm feeling fantastic, loving the new level of energy and I've gotten to where the eating plan is my normal routine. You can do it, too!

I don't have a standing photo since I reach goal but here I was holding my granddaughter. You can tell by my face and skinny legs...I will get a better one soon...(over 80 inches gone)

Rocking those boots! Funny -- I lost inches everywhere but I still have big calves and have trouble finding big-calf boots. Even the extended calf ones are usually too tight to zip!

I wear my boots very often, love them!!! My legs and arms are so skinny......we are doing Alaska this summer and I am taking my boots!!!

I just noticed I started out 60 lbs fatter than you.........I hadn't realized that
