Happy Dance for me
I am grinning today even more than yesterday! Sept. 4th was my 1st surgiversary and I have lost 110 lbs and 65 inches. I feel like a brand new person. I tried on a pair of Calvin Klein jeans that I bought at Costco for $17.00 (mind you they are stretchy) but the size 16 fits and I could actually have used a 14 - that is mind blowing. A year ago I did not believe that I would ever weigh under 200 lbs and I do now !!!! In fact my goal weight is now achievable in my future. When I read 'enjoy the ride' it certainly is true.
I seem to be in a 'stall' right now for about the last 8 weeks but I know that I just have to keep striving towards healthy. Thank you to everyone on this site for all of your information, laughs and encouragement. For all the newbies take it from this old girl - you can do it too
