Well, 120 lbs. Gone! Forever this time. What does it mean? It means… I am no longer Super Morbidly Obese. 20# more and I can drop the Morbidly part. I can walk 200 ft to the mailbox and not be short of breath. I can stand for more than 10 minutes without foot pain. I can tie my shoes without holding my breath. I can sit in more chairs without worry of collapse. I have gone from "Don’t dry the 4X" to drying a XL I have cut one of my blood pressure meds in half. Most of all, I am headed on a path of better health. Pictures in my profile.

That is so super awesome. :D It was a very happy day for me when I reached that goal! And happier even still when I could say that I was obese with no adjectives :D And then comes overweight! I'll be so happy when I'm "just" overweight :D

I use to think "if I could just stop gaining". VSG has made me look at the future with a little hope and excitement. (I love your posts by the way)
