Cyndi 9 Posted March 8, 2011 I was so happy this morning when I stepped on the scale and after the digital screen did it's little dance for what seemed like FOREVER...there it was. The numbers 199.0. I honestly didn't think I would be as excited as I was but the emotion got the better of me and I did a little naked happy dance right there on the scale. I started this journey at 251 lbs (highest weight) at 5' 2" on November 18th. That was the day I went to my doctor's office, stepped on the scale and was utterly shocked at what I saw. I immediately sprung into action. I lost 20 lbs prior to surgery and had my sleeve surgery on December 27th. It has been an interesting journey so far and I'm looking forward to my next goal 150. I wanted to shout it from the roof tops, but knew that since I still have a way to go, this would be just as good. Hope everyone is well and I'm happy I can share this moment with you! 1 morethan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fortunately the past year and a half they've all been positive. Keep up the good work!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I giggled at the nakid happy dance Cause I have done it too, or the YES! with the arm movement. My next goal, 171, down 100 pounds I have decided I am officially announcing of Facebook for all to know!
