Hallelujah -- I'm OVERWEIGHT!

[Ginger Snaps 1,323]

Yesterday I hit my halfway goal of 35 pounds with 35 to go. Today, one more pound down, I'm officially OVERWEIGHT and not obese! My BMI is 29.9 and in my house, we never round up! lol

How exciting! I had been stalled on that 1 last pound for over a week and while I wasn't stressing over not dropping the pound, I was SO wrapped up in anticipating seeing those numbers on the scale!

Two big milestones in 2 days -- I'm in heaven! This surgery has been the best thing for me ever. I have TONS of energy -- sometimes exercising twice a day because it just feels so damn good! And my self-confidence is through the roof because I'm finally doing something so good for myself and I feel like my outside is starting to match the outgoing, energetic person I am on the inside!

Leaving tomorrow for a week long vacation in Belize with the kids -- have zip lining, cave tubing and snorkeling/fishing trips planned. For once, I feel like I will be able to keep up with my crew (23, 20 and 15). At least I know I want be the one dragging down the rest of the group!

Life is Good!

Congratulations! I'm so looking forward to my surgery (still working on the pre-op weight loss) so that I can achieve similar scale and non-scale victories to the ones you're experiencing!

Have a wonderful trip to Belize!
