I'm so Pleased to have reached this milestone!! Well to be accurate I skipped right passed it as yesterday I was at 99lb lost and today I am 101lb lost! But it really feels Like a significant milestone even though I am just over 10 months from surgery, so my weight loss hasn't exactly been swift, but I'm happy with slow and steady :-)

That's fantastic! What do you mean "my weight loss hasn't axactly been swift"? 10 lbs a month is totally awesome, and twice to three times faster than I've been able to achieve since my teens. Own your achievement! Celebrate!

Congrats!

Congratulations! I'm sure you feel great. Awesome accomplishment.

LOL! 100 pounds in 10 months is "slow and steady" to some people ... I guess.

Congratulations. I don't think you know how lucky you are.

Congratulations on the tremendous effort you have made!

Congrats!! What a great milestone [emoji3]

Sorry, please don't be mistaken. I am hugely grateful for the progress I have made and the smooth journey I have had to date. I have been very blessed and I don't under estimate that at all.

I guess I am a)not very good at either complimenting myself or taking compliments off others, and b )quite self critical - so I read about plenty of people who do 100lbs or more in six months or less...and in comparison my loss is slower.

Either way, I am thrilled and feel so much better in so many ways. Took me years to find the courage to have surgery and I'm so very glad I did!

Still have another 20-30lbs to get to goal, but I'll keep on keeping on

@madferitchick Slow and steady WINS the race !!

You should be SO proud of all you've been able to accomplish since surgery ...

As with you, it too, took me a while to FINALLY get up the nerve and the courage and the "balls" to have this surgery ...

Now that I'm 9 months out ... I WISH I'D DONE IT YEEEEEAAAARS AGO!!!

Again, congratulations ... YOU deserve it !!!

Congratulations!! What are you going to do to celebrate?

Thankyou @@MrsKarenC2008 and well done to you too! I also wish I'd done it years ago but I guess the process of making the decision is all part of it!

@@kaitlynm I kind of celebrated early as I've just been on holiday with my family to Florida for two weeks (I'm from the UK) and I did ALOT of clothes shopping...like really ALOT!! Lol! And I loved every minute of it! Having to ask for a medium in lucky brand, Tommy Hilfiger, Michael kors etc because the large was too big was just surreal!! But I think my shopping spree definitely counts as a celebration lol!

Awesome I'm 6 weeks after surgery today and officially out of recovery stages and I lost 47. My goal was 50 and hopefully tomorrow I'll be there. I would love to be down 100 by July.
