Hi Terry! Congrats on making the century club!!!! I know what you mean about not feeling all that different. I mean, in some ways I feel WAY different, but my general sense of my self is unchanged, if that makes any sense. And I'm sorry you're feeling depressed. The emotions can be so complicated. Go easy on yourself - maybe you are expecting too much from yourself and the effect of the surgery. 100 pounds lost is a great accomplishment! I hope you will find ways to enjoy it. Take care, Kathy

Topic: Century Club- finally

Hi Gang, Finally, I'm there down 100 lbs from 285 to 185. I think I am doing ok. I still don't feel 100 lbs lighter though (nor do I think I look it). THis is an interesting journey and navigating is way harder than I thought it was going to be but all in all I am glad I did it. Sometimes I think I may be a little depressed but I'm not sure because I am supposed to be really happy about the loss but for some reason I'm not all that happy.Maybe I worry too much. Anyway, I hope everyone else is well. I read this forum all the time and there are a lot of great stories here. Terry

Topic: RE: PLATEAU BLUES!!!! ANY IDEAS???

Pam, I am in the same boat as you. I am almost to the 100 pound mark but just can't seem to get there I got down to within 2 pounds thern up 2 pounds. I just kind of figure I will get there when I get there. As long as my clothes don't get tight i am ok. I am off my meds for blood pressure and diabetes so as far as I am concerned I am where I want to be. I met my goal. Mine was not weight based it was how I feel and my health improvement. I met both of them. KEEP AT IT YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!!!

Topic: RE: clothing size vs. weight

Hi Michelle, I'm an apple shape and currently 181 lbs. I'm only 5.4 1/2. My clothing size is 12 (stretchy jeans), size 12-14 slacks -- depending on the cut, and a Large shirt, which is much improved from my 30-32 pants and 3X shirts. I am really broad through the shoulders and waist though; I have PCOS and fit the body type. The weirdest bones I'm finding are my collar bones (who knew they were there?) and the dip in my sternum. CRAZY! TERREE
