THANK YOU for posting these... sometimes the "I'm not losing" posts make me even more scared than I already am. *laughing* So good to see someone that was near my starting weight rocking it!
oh your welcome!  Your surgery date is getting closer, so I can imagine you're having all different types of feelings right now.  Don't worry about those 'i'm not losing' posts..stalls are a part of the process.  I went from month 9 til almost month 12 with not losing hardly anything, but now I'm right back to losing again.  Just keep positive, and know that its all a part of the journey.  You'll do great!! And just think of how awesome you'll be feeling by this time next year!!

Thank you so much for your post!!!

My start weight was 315 and sometimes it feels hopeless!

I am lucky that I can sit on the floor and get up and down to care for my daughter etc (I get her dressed on the floor etc) but I don't EVER remember being able to sit with my legs crossed one over the other like that!  Can't wait!!!

Thanks for the inspiration, Dawnie! We have very similar starting and goal weights, so it's great so see someone close to goal!

Thanks for posting Dawn!  I was getting a little discouraged, but you make me remember to keep my eye on the prize!  Thanks again!
