Hooray ..... I'm NORMAL!!!

Hi everyone! When I got on the scale this morning, I weighed 159 which puts my BMI in the "NORMAL" range for the first time in ages!!! I have lost a total of 126 pounds in a little over 9 months!! I have 9 more pounds to lose to reach my goal! I cannot believe what an unbelievable ride this past 9 months have been. Even with all my setbacks and complications, having this surgery was the best thing that I ever did! I would do it again in a NY second! Thank you to everyone on this forum for all your support and encouragement! You are all part of the reason that I am "normal" (at least my BMI is!!) today. Hugs, Lisa

Congratulations on your success Lisa! You are so lucky to be there already! Helen

Congrats!! I hope to be "normal" sometime soon myself. I just recently went from "obese" to "overweight". I feel so much thinner!

ONLY 105!!!! thats great!!!!!!! how dare you put an only in front of 105lbs

Robin, where is the word only in my statement? I am proud of the 105 lbs that I have lost. I am a little sad that it could have been more if I had exercised like I should have. I have begun exercising more and am trying not to look back.
