I made it to 1-derland Saturday!  YAY!!!  :-)  And as of this morning I am 199.0!!!  That puts me down 181.9 lbs.  In 8.1 more lbs I will be half of my former self.  How wild is that!?!?!  Life is GREAT!!!

I haven't updated in a couple of months.  My weight loss is still going well.  I had a stretch there where it slowed down; but it was my fault.  I got into the snacking in the evening habit.  Had to have a little talk w/ myself!

Life is going good.  I'm officially down 177.3 lbs as of this morning!  WOOOOHOOOO!  I feel fantastic.  I am 3.7 lbs from being 199.9 lbs! I can not wait to get to 1-derland.  I don't remember the last time I weighed 1xx.  LOL!  Heck...I can't remember 2xx.  LOL 

Just thought I'd drop in a note to say happy February.  It's been a bittersweet few weeks for me.  We finished cleaning out my dad's house this weekend.  I really do miss him.  I miss being able to email him pictures of my progress.  I know it made him so happy.  I'm so thankful that I was able to do this before he died.  It made him happy to see me lose weight.  It makes me more determined now to lose it & keep it off.  I want to make him proud.

I'm down a total of 147 lbs as of this morning.  It's amazing to think about it.  147 lbs?!?!!?  I've never lost that much weight in my life.  I've lost more than my child weighs.  I've lost more than my mother weighs.  I've lost an average adult.  LOL!  My goal is to lose another 73 lbs.  That would put me at 160.  I would be happy w/ that.  I'm happy where I'm at right now; but I want to do more.  I still have a belly.  And horrid thighs.  LOL!  And I truly need to be exercising.  I just can't find the time.  I've decided I'm going to help coach my daughter's soccer team this spring.  That will get me some exercise.  :-)

Cleaning out my dad's house really boosted my weight loss also.  I've lost about 4 lbs just since friday.  That's more than I usually lose in a week.  I did the same last weekend when we were working on it.  It boosted my bank account as well.  My mom & I closed on the house on Feb 1st (ironically my dad's birthday).  I got half the proceeds from the sale.  It sure is going to make our life easier.  I'll be able to pay off some bills and we won't be so stressed for $$$.  YAY!

Well that's it for now.  Another update soon!

Woohoo!!! As of this morning I am no longer Extremely Obese!! I'm just Obese!  What a wonderful feeling!  I went and had blood drawn for my 6 mos check up this morning.  Can't wait to see the results in my cholesterol & sugar and see how I'm doing since surger!  :-)

I'm officially less than 100 lbs to my goal weight.  YAY!!!

I'm so awful at updating this!!!  I'm now over half way to my goal.  YAY!  I'm at 118 lbs.  Life is good!  I put on a pair of old pants tonight that were like tight before I had surgery.  Now they fall off.  It's hilarious.  This surgery is the best thing I've ever done for myself! 

WOOHOO!! As of this AM I am down 100 lbs! 

I am at 91 lbs as of this morning!  9 more pounds and I will have hit the 100 lb mark.  I have never in my life lost 100 lbs!  It's freaking amazing!  This surgery was such a blessing for me!  I feel so good!  And if I do say so myself...I look damn good!  LOL!
