GOAL

Nov 01, 2009

I woke up yesterday morning and jumped on the scale.  I looked down and in shock I saw my goal weight of 150 lbs.  I blinked a few times and then realised... This was the first day in my ENTIRE life that I was not overweight.  I was born a fat baby and stayed overweight.  It was a constant battle.  I've lost weight over the years but never to the point I got into a normal healthy range.

Through out the day it would flash through my mind that I wasnt over weight.  People stopped and told me how great I was looking and for the first time I truly appreciated it.

When my daughter got home from work she took my measurements again.  Since the day before surgery and yesterday I've lost 52 1/2 total inches.  It almost works out that I've lost 2lbs for every inch I lost!

I do have new goals now.  Part of me would like to get to 128lbs.  The reason for this is because I will have lost half my entire weight if I do this.  But for now I will have simple goals.  Break into the 140's which I did today because my weight this morning was 149.6.  My biggest goal will be to stay in a healthy weight range.  That means I can be between 119lbs and 150lbs.  If I can stay in that range for the rest of my life I will be happy.  I dont care if I get to 119.  I want to stay a normal weight.

I accomplished my goal 5 days short of my wls surgery anniversary of November 5th.

Until next time.. Staying healthy!
