 A few months back, I got a WLS tattoo done on my back. A crescent moon with three stars inside of it and my surgery date below it. Each of the stars stood for 100 pounds lost. I hadnt gotten to 300 down at the time, but I was NOT going through that pain a second time just to get an additional star lol. Well, this morning I stepped on the scale and...it said 201!!! I started at 501 so now it is official, I am 300 pounds down and my stars totally are warranted!! I feel on top of the world! Now, onto the next goal, only two pounds away, to be under 200 pounds for the first time since high school!

Wow, you are so right, you deserve to be walking on the moon or clouds, losing 300 lbs...holy crap , you know how they say you lost a person, well you lost a really fat person!  I am probably going to wait forever for me to get under 200, but something in my heart tells me that it is going to happen.  I can't wait for that day, you and I can celebrate together because when I graduated from High School I too was just under 200, and that was in the 60's

So you can thank your lucky stars now!!! 

Hugs, Diane

It sure is good C'ING LESS OF ME!

 

We could learn a lot from crayons: 
some are sharp, some are pretty, 
some are dull, some have weird names, 
& all are different colors....but they

ALL exist very nicely in the same box.
