Last year the beginning of summer j cried one day and thought how do u get thru another summer at 230 pounds. I had to make a change. I am almost to my goal. I want to hit goal by this November.

good for you ! Im looking forward to this ( short ) summer too. Im down 47 lbs( about 50 to go ! ) and can really feel the difference as far as how comfortable i am in the heat, the clothes im wearing , and how i feel. This will be the 1st summer in a long long time that i dont feel uncomfortable in alot of ways. Good luck !

So happy & proud of you! I, too, am enjoying summer a lot more than last year at this time. (Good thing since I live in TX & we had 3 months straight of 100+ weather last year). So, I love being able to wear shorts & tanks. I am not as hot & can keep the thermostat higher. I may even get in a bathing suit in a couple of weeks at a girlfriend's lake house. Don't know when I did that last -- maybe college (30 years ago?). Just found 3 new skirts In my closet (with tags) that now fit & are still fashionable. Every day there is something new to be grateful for!

Congrats, I'm sure that you will meet your goal by November...you just keep doing what your doing. I'm down 32 lbs and I have 95lbs to go before I reach my goal ...one day at a time

Thank you all for joining my thread. Its so very rewarding to see all of the encouragement. I definitely dont feel alone with my feelings. Tge self hatred can be so overwhelming at times. Although this surgery has taken some of those feelings and made me a healthier person.
