Vickie23 53 Posted May 19, 2016 (edited) I weighed myself today at work, and I got on that scale and it said 199 lb. I got off and went back on because I was in disbelief!! 199 lb. I couldn't believe it. I had my Gastric bypass a little over 6 months ago, & I did a 6 month post explaining everything, but to see 199 pounds on the scale was like WOW!! I mean last year on May 22, 2015 2 days after my 29th birthday, I went to my PCP and was 308 pounds and newly diabetic. and This year in 2 days it will be my birthday and I am 199 pounds, it is just surreal. I have always been a big person, Always!! I am saying bye to my 20s and the the 109 pound person I was carrying around. Very emotional. Very happy. Happy early birthday present to me!! I hope we all have these moments, something that we all know we are going to loose the weight little by little as we listen to the instructions and do what we are told, but to see the scale I just couldn't believe it!! I am on cloud 9, super happy!! To continuing to loose weight safely and happily! I've all ready been super happy because I was a person always wanting to eat and now to live my life around living and being active is awesome!! Last year for my birthday at the office, I was shy to take this picture lol, and my picture now even posing with the cake! I feel great!! I'm so happy Edited May 19, 2016 by Vickie23 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
