Small victory.....

[awalden2829 9]

I am 5 weeks post-op this week....I have lost 31 pounds so far ( that includes 2 week pre-op diet)....I am very excited about that however I am most excited about the fact that I now weigh 8 pounds less than my husband! Lol.....May not seem like a big deal to some but it is to me....we have been married for 17 years and he has not gained 5 extra pounds opposed to my gaining over 100 pounds....so it is nice to weigh less than him for the first time in 13 years......

Oh, I so get this victory and cannot wait to be able to report the same! Married 22 years and gained the hundred in cycles of loss/gain back more, loss/gain much more, etc. while husband has remained the same. Thank goodness, really -- one of us facing this is enough. But still, I can't wait for that day I am in One-derland and less than him. Congratulations on such a great beginning to your weight loss -- thanks so much for posting. I can't wait to begin!

That's not a small victory, that's huge!! Congratulations! I still have about 45 pounds to go to get to that one, but I have definitely been looking forward to it!
