Nsv(Maybe) & Onederland

[POOHBEAR7699 41]

Okay so my week started off with a NSV(maybe). I live in NC but home for me is SC, so I went home this past weekend and I haven't been to my home church in over a year, although I go home at least once a month. Well I decided to surprise my grandmother by attending church but I didn't tell her that I was coming home or to church. So my husband & I get to church on Sunday and my grandmother is already seated, I go up to her and give her a hug & kiss on the cheek and sit down. Well halfway thorough the service she touches my hand and whispers in my ear that she didn't recognize who I was, she said that if it wasn't for my husband sitting with me she wouldn't have known until church was over. Now mind you she has seen me within the last month but I guess since I have lost a few more inches she didn't realize that it was me. At first I didn't know whether I should be elated or offended, but then I realized I must be "ROCKING MY SLEEVE" . Then this morning I get on the scale (which I normally do on Tuesdays but b/c my hubby had knee surgery on Tuesday I was preoccupied) and it read 199.8(5 months post op 08/13) WHOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! I haven't been under 200lbs in 14yrs. This is the best that I have felt in a long time and I know that it will only get better. My next goal is to be 185 on my 6 month follow up in September.

Well done you! you are obviously doing things right and it is all coming together, keep on rocking that sleeve and you will achieve your 6 months goal.

It's a great feeling isn't it... I reach onderland last month and it has been moving slower now but it had been at least 20 years since I had seen the one hundreds. I'm always glad to hear these success stories. It makes me know that this is the best thing I have every done for myself.
