Welcome to Twoterville!!

Hello Friends…I got on the scale for my weekly weigh-in and it read 298 lbs!!  I realize that a lot of people start their journey at this weight, but for me it’s a big milestone to be out of three hundreds!!

So to recap it’s been just over 7 months since WLS and I’ve lost 128 lbs. I’m not going to get too excited because I still need to lose another 50-70 lbs depending on where my Lean Body Mass levels out (FFM ~ 208 lbs right now).

I haven’t had a sustained plateau yet (cross fingers) and aside for a bad week or two after having to put my dog to sleep (broke my heart) I’ve stuck to my meal and exercise plans religiously.

Other aspects of life are improving as well; I’m being more social/active, less chronic pain, reconnecting with friends, body is getting stronger, achieving better work – life balance…all those things that I had hoped I’d reclaim as a result of having WLS  are beginning to come into view. On the flip side, the girlfriend situation has definitely been impacted by WLS, but that’s a story for a different post/forum.

I still don’t consider the camera as a friend of mine (although the camera lovvvees my cute ass..just kidding) so I’ll have to be much closer to goal before I post a progress pic.

Anyway, it’s a big achievement for me and I just wanted to share.
