Only 8 more pounds to go before reaching the big -100lbs!!!

I got weighed today at the doctor's office and I'm now down 84lbs.
WOOHOO!!!! 

6 months out and down 77lbs.......not too shabby!  I had my blood drawn yesterday so we'll see how that's going.

I was wrong........I've lost 73lbs.......WOOHOO!!!!

I am feeling pretty good.......so far so good.  I'm taking my vitamins like I'm suppose to and I'm eating "MORE PROTEIN".  I'm now down 71lbs and so so very happy with it.  

Ok here goes......I'm not very good at just writing down what I'm feeling and sharing it with people.  Generally, I keep in inside until I explode.
I had surgery June 19, 2006 and have been pretty successfull as far as the weightloss.  I've lost 67lbs so far and I'm pretty happy with that.  However, (here comes the bad news) my labwork wasn't too great.  My iron and protein were down so apparently I'm not getting in enough protein.  I admit that I stopped drinking the protein shakes which I have now re-started (even though I haven't found any that I truly like).  
Another thing I've started taking is an Iron supplement......which is a pain since I can't drink coffee or tea 1 hour before or 2 hours after taking it.   Tea and water have become my main sources of liquid.  I can't stand Crystal Light anymore and can only stomach like 2-4oz of milk.  If you have read this and have any suggestions for me.....please feel free to share.  I guess I'm done whinning!
