Goal Accomplished

Hey all,

Today I went in for my 6th month visit with my surgeon. Tomorrow marks 7 months out and I did not go last month due to the holidays and other stuff going on.

My doctor from day 1 has never asked me what my goal weight is. She doesn't believe in setting people up to hit a certain number. I told her today that I would like to be 145 (normal for me is 150). At the Dr. office I weighed in at 157. I asked her if I am close or how much more I should attempt to lose. She pulled out her calculator and said according to her calculations I am at goal and if I want to lose more then it is up to me. Wow!

I'm aiming for 145-maybe 140, I want to start back exercising and toning and know that adding muscle will add some pounds on the scale. This is the first time in over 15 years that a Dr has considered me normal in the weight department!

I love my sleeve!

Thanks everyone.

I still have some flab I want gone. Plus I am trying to get enough off so if I gain due to rebound in yr 2/3 I will still be in a normal range.

I also want to see if I can get in a size 4 jean.
