Major wow moment!

Hi everyone: I know I rarely post but I do keep up with you all -- this IS the best board on OH!!! It is official -- as of today I have lost 100 lbs. I can't believe it. It has been such a weird journey. My battle with food rages on - having the surgery didn't change that. I must constantly battle the hunger in my head. It is getting better. It's like part of my kept thinking that along with every other diet - this wouldn't work for me either. I'm so glad I was wrong. At my highest weight I felt like I was barely existing. Now, even though I'm still pretty big, I feel like I can move mountains! I am fully participating in life again and I am extremely grateful. Even if I don't lose another pound (I know I will) the surgery was worth it. So, to all of you SMORE'S - Thanks and keep posting. Maybe now I can come out and play a little more often. XOXO Mary

congratulations..... sounds as if your doing great.

That's AWESOME Mary! 100 pounds! 100 freakin' POUNDS! That's like, a 10 year old kid. If I were you, I'd find a 100 pound kid or little bity skinny woman who weighs about 100 pounds and give them a piggy back ride, just for old times sake. Big (((((HUGS))))) Brandy
