Ok..I knew I was a little odd..but man..I see all the posts where people aren't losing..and it's that time of the month for us women..but it's the total opposite for me. I seem to always lose 4-5 lbs the week before my cycle. Well..this month..I started (sorry..if too much info)..and was disappointed because i hadn't lost anything that week before..BUT..since i started my cycle a few days ago..I have lost from 210 down to 206..Wow! On the 4th of July i was at 213 lbs..so that's a loss of 7 lbs in a little over a month..I'll take that!

I am getting so excited to see 199..it can't happen soon enough.

The good thing is..i got a whole lot of compliments last night at a party i was at. A few people had came up to me and said 'you have to be under 200 already..you look about 180 lbs'..I was thrilled to hear that!! So happy that I at least don't look over 200...

this is how i was dressed..very casual..lol

Embrace that feeling in your quiet time... think of the BIG "J" upstairs and thank him for all your blessings today. breathe in and out slowly in your quiet time....and just feel how you think your beautiful, vibrant, and successful today.

I so can relate.

Dawnie,
That's awesome. Such an inspiration to me. You look beautiful and so happy! You'll be to goal before you know it.

If you fear nothing, then you love nothing. If you love nothing, what joy can there be in life?

You look so awesome and definitely under 200 lbs! We are the same height and I am at 198 lbs so we are very close. I've been sleeved only since 6/17 but I only started at 224 cause I had a lapband 7 years prior that was a disaster but helped me get off my first 50 lbs.

I'm so glad you are so happy. I wish some of it were contagious for me . For some horrible reason I can't shake my anxiety and sad mood since surgery. Everyday is a struggle. I'm not myself. I"m hoping my hormones I was just put on 2 days ago will help.

Congrats!
