On Saturday morning I hit 199.0 lbs on the scale! OMG!!!! I did a happy dance and took a picture of my toes on the scale next to that glorious number.

I'm at 75 pounds lost now since my pre-op diet began in Sep 2007 and 56 pounds down since surgery!

I am just so happy to see a "1" in front of my weight! This is huge for me. I weigh less now than I did at my wedding in 2006!!!

I love my band! Thanks for all the support here.

Thanks!!!

I'm going to post the picture soon. I'm just so damn excited!

Congratulations!!! That must feel SO great!

I'm going to hit mine in a couple weeks, and then I'm going to not look at the scale again for at least a week or so -- I never want to see myself above 199.9 again. :tongue_smilie:

Congrats!!! That is a huge milestone!

I hit that magic number just a couple of weeks ago and I know the feeling! I have lost a total of 97 pounds since I started my pre surgery diet and I can't believe how great it feels! :tt2::thumbup:

Congrats!!!! Your toes even look thinner. LOL.

I cant wait to hit that special mark myself. I'll do a dance for you.

Hugs

woo woo!!!

Thanks for sharing... it helps us all to know it is possible.

I have some weird mental stuff around being under 200 pounds. Here I sit 2 weeks later and I'm only down to 197:blushing:. So about a pound a week I guess... so at least i'm still losing. The last time I lost weight I only got down to like 191. I have faith that the band is my ticket (tool) to help me get under that threshold. I know I can do it. It may take more time but it will happen.

I'm going to start tracking my food again each day and add some strength to my cardio excercise routine. I'll need to kick it up a notch and not just keep doing what I've been doing.:wink2:

Thanks to everyone for all the support.

And good luck to everyone else! we can meet our goals together.:confused:

Congrats, I am going to do a dance for you too. I hope to join you in a couple of weeks. I will keep you posted. keep up the good work! I'm so HAPPY for you!:wink2:
