I was just calculating that out. I have 10 pounds to go to be just over weight. So that is my next goal. Almost there. :wacko:

WOOOO HOOOOOO!! Girl, you are one hot overweight chick!! My "next" goal was actually reached today. After losing 80 lbs, I finally weigh what my drivers license says I weigh. :P The next one is in 20 more pounds when I hit 220. That will be 100 lbs gone!!

I have 8.1 pounds to go before I get under 200 - which is exciting in and of itself and it will be the least I have weighed in about 25 years. I got close to the 200 mark about 8 years ago and then my body quit losing, I got frustrated, and started eating my way back to 300+ pounds. So this particular milestone is one I am both looking forward to and scared of. What if the same thing happens as last time and I just can't do it? Etc.

The last time I was this weight was when I almost died and couldn't eat for 3 months. This time around it's been a lot more fun to get to it! But like you, I'm now in new territory. The next landmark for me will be 175 lbs, which I can remember weighing 19 years ago!

Good news is, this time you will keep losing and you can't eat enough to gain back all the weight. Gotta keep the faith, right?

Congrats and welcome to the overweight club. I hope to stay here for the rest of my life. To reach the "normal" club I only need to lose 38 more pounds. Really? Where would it come from?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
