Well yesterday was my 13th month post op date & I'm down 115 lbs. Been at 200 lbs the past 2 days & so ready to break into the 100's. It's been a long road, but one that I'm grateful for. Just looked back at my weight records & realized it took me 6 months just to lose 25 lbs, but that's ok. At least I'm still losing & I'm thankful for that. I would still like to lose another 35 lbs & I'm confident I can get there. I finally went down to a size 16 but had to buy a belt for the first time since I was a kid, due to the fact that they don't want to stay up. Not sure if I need to attempt a size 14 or not. I don't like tight fitting pants & believe it might be too tight for my liking so I bought a belt instead. Lol I have to say I was overwhelmed in the belt section. I didn't know what to even look for. I know that sounds silly, but I didn't. I was wishing I had my daughter with me since she buys belts all the time. Anyways I've rambled on long enough, just wanted to share a little bit of my happiness today.

Congratulations!!!  That's awesome, I know it's been a little hard for me since I've hit 6 months and the slow down but I'm still loosing and clothes are looking so much better on me.  Wish I didn't have that, I WANT it now syndrome but I think alot of people do.  I'm ready to see some clothes I've never warn before....but right now i can still closet shop because I ranged from a 22/24 to a 34 pants and probably should have been a 5x shirt but I refused to go any bigger.   In the next 40 pounds....I'll have to start looking for bargains and borrowing maybe from my sister.  LOL  

Have a GREAT day!

Thanks everyone! Yes at times I've thought this has really slowed down to a creep, but you know what it's still going down & I'm ok with how it's coming off. My husband just a couple mornings ago asked me where I'm going & I was like what are you talking about I'm going to work. He said no you are disappearing. Made my day. Now I'm starting to see my smaller self & it feels good.

You have done a wonderful job and should feel proud of yourself.  I will be happy when I get the scale moving on down but I have just started.
