It's a beautiful morning :-)

Jun 16, 2011

The sun is shining... the birds are churping..... the house is still quiet as it is still only 6:42 am in Qatar.....and.... I am doing the HAPPY DANCE

I cannot remember exactly when was the last time I did not weigh in the 300's. It has to be at least 12 years, probably more...but today.... today... today.... June 17, 2011... a day I will never take for granted.... 299.8

Originally my surgery was scheduled for tomorrow and one of my goals was to weight under 300 for my surgery date. Unfortunately my surgery will not be until July so to reach this goal now.... without doing the 2 week pre-op diet is a moral boost to my self-confidence.  YIPPPPPPPPPPEEEEE!!!

To increase my excitement I have also reached another mildstone.... with my BMI now at 49.9 I went down from the SUPER Obese category to now being Extremely Obese... Hey... I know it's not a big jump.... but I will take it

Life the passed few weeks has been extremely emotional and stressful. In the past I would have reverted to food for comfort so I guess all my current achievements are due to the fact that I am actually changing. I am proud of myself for remaining focused and not falling back into my old ways of dealing with pain.
