Hit a HUGE milestone and wanted to share!

My starting weight was 401 in April 2011. I started changing my eating habits and exercising. In October 2012 i started looking into gastric bypass. My starting weight at my 1st appointment was 338 i believe. My surgery date is in 6 days so March 5th. As of this morning i weigh..... drumroll please hehehe


299.2!

I am UNDER 300 pounds first time in over 10 years. I told my surgeon i wasn't stopping at my weight loss surgery goal and i didn't!! I told her on the day of surgery i would be 299 or less... and guess what??? I did what i aimed for. I am beyond excited right now. I mean words really cannot even explain how it feels for me to say i no longer weigh in the 300's anymore.
Total loss so far pre~op = 102 pounds.
