Halfway To My Goal!!!

[blanham04 38]

I've been a little lax in activity on this site lately, but I've been busy in my own journey. I wanted to share that as of today I have lost 101 lbs!!!! I really started trying to lose weight in February of 2012 and I was actually banded on May 10th. I am halfway to my goal of 200lbs lost and I am pretty excited about it! I hope by this time next year I am at my goal. On a side note, a lot of people at work keep asking me how much I've lost (I wish I could hide the fact that I'm losing weight, but it's kind of hard). I tell them that I'm not sharing that information (I've never been a good liar) and they seem to get upset with me. Its kind of bothersome. Anyone else have this issue, how did you deal with it?

Best of luck to you all!

Congratulations!!! So exciting!!

Honestly, I'm pretty open about how much weight I've lost. At the beginning I struggled with it but now I'm proud of what I've accomplished so far. Plus, I won't lie, it's amusing as heck to watch people's jaw drop when I say I've lost over 150 pounds.

If you're not comfortable telling people how much you've lost, I'd simply smile and say "a lot"
