Bye Bye 300's!

[sexii_c 25]

This mornings weigh in gave me such motivaton to keep on going! I now weigh 299 for the first time in at least 16 years. I simply could not hold back the tears!! It has been a journey' date=' but I must say a very easy one so far. I have had no sickness, I am feeling great and have really started to embrace this new lifestyle with joy. I look forward to my morning workouts, I actually look for extra walking to do around work too! Never in my life would I have thought I'd look for ways to exercise!

I just cannot express how over joyed I am this morning!![/quote']

Congrats!

Wow. That's amazing! Good job to all you user 3's!!! Here is my question. When you are fluffy you never want anyone to know your weight bc no one can imagine being 300+ lbs. so like me, my license lies and says even 300 while I am way over that I won't admit it. Now that you are under 300 will you lie or tell the truth????

I'm so used to the shame of my weight, I cannot bring myself to post it, or even talk in public (like at support group) about what it is or how much I want to lose.

Well.... my drivers license actually says I weigh 260lbs.... guess I thought I was hiding those extra hundred ten lbs!! So I have a 45 lbs till I have to worry about it. But I more than likely wont change it until i renew it in a couple years.

I've always told the truth about my weight bc I wear it well... but I can't wait to be at my goal 150-160 so I can tell the truth with joy instead of regret.

I wouldnt even share with my own Mother how much I weighed prior to surgery....well, I still havent! But this is the only place where I feel comfortable sharing this kind of information. I guess it's because we are all in the same boat. I havent been able to go to a support group local meeting because they are always when I work, but not sure I'd share anything about my actual weight there anyway....dont mind sharing the pounds lost or nonscale victories...but not how much I actually weigh.

I would die if my husband knew I was up to 370lbs! He knows I am a big woman, but I couldnt bare telling him my actual weight!! Hes about 245lbs...so I wanna get lower than him!!

I think my turning point was admitting to my husband how much I weigh. It was such a hard core embarrassment that it made me are I need help and researched the WLS options.

It's horrible how we are all so ashamed.

It's sad. I have had the meanest stuff said to me about my weight. Shame comes with the territory.

I love that feeling of looking at new numbers that in your heart you knew you'd never see again! Its like a dream looking at these numbers! Keep going Debra and thanks for the inspiration!

Well I am sitting on 348 at the moment and hopefully when I have my surgery in Feb '13 I will be hopefully at 250 this time next year. You are all a Huge inspiration for me.

I don't have Huge Goals and don't expect it to fall off me, but I am gonna take it one day at a time.

I started off at 370....really thought I'd fail at this too....but I am losing! It's ok to make huge goals...you can obtain them! I never thought I'd be below 300 again....and now I am heading to the 280's!

You can do it!! and like you said it's always just one day at a time!! I am excited for your surgery in feb!!
