melunruh 91 Posted December 9, 2016 By no means am I at goal, but I'd you would have told me on Sept 26th that is be 50lbs lighter before Christmas, I would have told you that you're insane. Yet here i am! I have 60 more to go before I'm at goal, but for the first time in my life, I can see myself getting there. That's a lot to wrap my head around. The lowest weight I ever remember being is 186 in 6th grade. So pictures are worth 1000 words. The first pic was July 1st, two weeks before my first appt with the surgeon. The second was tonight.

kmorri 1,689 Posted December 9, 2016 @@melunruh You are doing great!!! Awesome job!! Doesn't it feel amazing? My surgery was May 16th just a little over 6.5 months ago and as of this morning I'm down 99.8 pounds!! just 2.2 pounds away from meeting my goal of 150......I'm hoping to hit my goal by Christmas. What a present that will be!! So keep doing what you're doing and keep remembering this feeling you have now and use it for motivation on the days when you struggle. Congrats!!!

melunruh 91 Posted December 9, 2016 Thanks everyone! Setting a better example for my daughter is one odd my huge motivating factors! She had started going to see my trainer with me on the weekends and we've signed up for a 5k women's only obstacle course on April 8th. I would have NEVER considered doing that in my past. I'm loving the extra energy I have now. Even my daughter mentored this morning how much happier I am! Ron and autumn, I look forward to keeping up with you two!
