Today my scale read 298. I wanted to cry with happiness!

I haven't been this light for 6 years. I don't even know how to feel about it.

HW- 350

SW- 334

CW- 298

I've lost a total of 52 pounds in 8 weeks. I'm 6 weeks post surgery and even though it has been a rough journey it feels like life is starting to come together. I'm learning more every day and I've gotten through my first stall.

I'm starting to see why people say this was the best decision they ever made. As I'm not fully there yet, I hope one day I am.

My main goal for this post was because when things were super tough I needed to see the success people were achieving. I want to help inspire.

I want you to know you're not alone and even though each of our journeys are our own, you have more support here than you realize.

And hopefully I will never see a 3 on my scale again.

Your doing great. I know it's a wonderful feeling to say goodbye to the 300's. [emoji4]

congrats, that is big milestone on your journey!

Congrats!!! You go!!

Congratulations and awesome job!!

I remember when I dipped below the 300 mark and I was so excited! I remember thinking... I will never have to see myself at 300 pounds on this scale again!

Thanks for sharing with us!!

I'm now in the 2's from the 3's so I can totally relate. Bye bye 3 something. HIGH FIVE

Congratulations. I've been under 300 for a couple weeks now and I feel as though I'm approaching being a 'normal' person - whatever that is l..

My point is.. it is a great feeling. Our stats are quite similar so I feel connected to your accomplishment!

Well you are normal but I understand where you're coming from. I know the feeling. I'm on the treadmill right now doing this and haven't stopped in over 30 minutes. I couldn't have done that 6 months ago. Three or four minutes would have been tough.
