OK! I can officially say that I have reached 100lbs as of this morning. It may be by only a few tenths but I am claiming this victory.

I am so excited this was my real first goal and I have met that goal in 7 months. Must say that it is getting harder to lose weight now but I must remember how far I have come.

I have a funny story surrounding this loss. On Saturday night, I was having really bad shoulder pain. This pain has been off and on since surgery and can get excrutiating. Well, I tried Tylenol and Motrin and nothing was killing the pain so I decided to take my left over pain medication (OxyCodone) for it. I took the recommended dosage of 2 tsp. and went off into la-la land for the night. However, I woke up Sunday morning really not feeling well at all. I felt sick to my stomach and was breaking out with cold sweats and sleeping at the drop of a pin. It took me until 3pm to feel better and I couldn't figure out why I felt so bad.

I was talking with my Mom about it and she said it sounded like I had a hang over. I chuckled because I have never been hung over in my life and wouldn't know it if it smacked me in the face. We further discussed that I probably overdosed on OxyCodone since I was given that prescription when I weighed 100lbs more. So the motto of the story is if you have prescription pain meds that were prescribed at your higher weight you might want to lower the dosage so you don't feel as cruddy as I did on Sunday. LOL

Anyways, I am elated at the 100bls officially and now on to my next goal of 220lbs....the infamous Wedding Weight of 18 years ago.

Love to all,

Cindy

Congratulations!!!!!!!!! And thanks for the heads up.

Exciting news, Cindy! :thumbup:

I'm sure you did the "happy" dance when you saw that on the scale. I've been out of the loop lately, did you get there before Craig?

I'm winding down on the biggest part of the work here in RI. (Thankfully) First Bridal shower this weekend and then I'll PM you soon after.

I think I beat Craig but he hasn't posted in awhile. I hope I did dang it. Looking forward to a visit to the RI coast for a day. Hope all is well with you.

Congratulations Cindy, what an amazing achievement and in such a short time. You have been an inspiration to all of us and this makes me want to push harder to get mine moving!

Hi Everyone!

I just wanted to thank you all for great well wishes. You do realize that I have done this with all of your help and I couldn't have done it without you. You may not realize this but you have been inspiring to me during the last 7 months. Even though we are all losing at different paces, I have always felt supported and encouraged.

I do not know how anybody can do this WLS journey without support of some kind. I have found that I am more accountable with coming here everyday.

Again, thanks guys! You are best Bander family that anyone could ask for.

Love you guys!

Cindy
