For the last 3 weeks I would go up and down about a pound on the scales. I got pretty bummed. I finally took it all out at the gym on my body on Monday. I walked on the treadmill at a pace of 4.0 and did two miles then I went to bikes and did another 4 miles. I was so worn out I came home and passed out. I woke up the next morning (Tuesday) and had lost a pound and half. Today I weighed myself again and had lost 0.8 lbs. I am now 10 lbs away from my first big reward of an hour massage!!! I can not wait till I hit the 199 mark!!! I have not felt this good, energetic, and happy in years. I have already gotten rid of all my fat clothes and just bought some leggings until I can get down to closer to where I want to be. As an added bonus, my hubby was rubbing my shoulders yesterday and said "you have nothing here anymore, it is all bone" which made me feel good also!!! I can finally see the changes in my body after losing 50 lbs!!

BTW: surgery was on June 15

Starting weight 260

Surgery weight 245

Today 210

Congratulations and well done on the loss. You are so determined and hearing your journey is very inspiring. I'm 3 weeks out tomorrow and still very tired, which I expected. I can't wait to get in the gym though, hopefully I will get the go ahead after my 6 week checkup!

It's nice that you have set yourself a reward too. I think that's a really good idea
