I met w/ the dietician and PT person today at Fairview, I was SO hoping to be under 300, and was SO close. 300.3 -UGH! The nurse said, bet you were 299 this morning. So true! So, since starting the 6 month supervised diet, I've lost a total of 25. I don't see it in myself at all, and can't tell even in my clothes. I'm really excited though and can move on to soft foods Thursday. Am anxious to have something other than soup or yogurt which have been my staples the last almost 2 weeks.

**CHRISTMAS MORN - 298 WOOO HOOO!

Congratulations!!! Your so close, but you will get there soon. I also don't really see or feel the weight that I've lost (40 pounds since summer). People have noticed it though, and that's a good feeling. Keep up the great work!! Kristy

I am so proud of you! I bet you can't WAIT to get to soft foods! It was such a breath of fresh air. I am sure that there is a difference. I can't wait to see you to tell you that! Hope you have a wonderful holiday! Going to Eagan coffee on Sat?

At your next appointment you will be well below the 300 lb mark. THAT will be an amazing feeling. Once you start to venture out a bit and try new things, you will start to feel a little more energized and that will keep you moving. Which means the weight will start to melt off. Seriously, it does go fast.

Be sure to take pictures. You look at yourself in the mirror almost every day. So its no surprise that you don't see it in yourself. Just wait. I think I finally started seeing it during month 3. Heck, I still look in the mirror today and see myself as 262 lbs.

You are doing amazing. Keep up the great work. Merry Christmas.

Still, that's great, Kristy! Things will start moving soon. I'm going to start keeping my measurements. For some reason I've resisted until now. But I can finally see I've lost a lot up top but the scale hasn't really reflected it.

We could have a measuring party! LOL

Can't wait to meet you on Saturday.
