Ok I have lost 88 pounds so far

brings our total to

542.8

I am absolutely amazed at my weight loss! I have lost a total of 88 pounds. 30 being pre op and 58 being post op! I love my new confidence, I feel great! I can now walk, I can now walk 5 km which before hand I would have died, well at least felt like it! I am more out there in the world, not confind to my home. My children are totally enjoying it! I am generally more happy! MY dh and I do not bicker as much. My self esteem has rising!  I hate hate hate plateaus, they slow me down. I have lost inchs but I am more so wanting the scale to move, the scale said I was 462 pounds I want the scale to say 200-220! Get my point! I am a scale ***** I weight myself every morning. My hair has started falling out, not in clumps as of yet, perhaps the biotin is helping. But still its noticeable. Over all ladies I feel great. I have grazed a couple of times, without realizing, sucks, those old habbits will always be there and you always have to be ones steap ahead of them. I would like to be able to run by next summer!

247 plus my 57 = umm lets see....carry the 1..............304!!!!!!!!!!!!
