Almost a year ago I was hopeful to say those words, but still uncertain I ever would. But here I am shouting from the rooftops that I met my goal!!!! Actually I met it about 22 days ago but I haven't taken the time to sit down and write about it.
This coming Wednesday will be my one-year surgeversary. I can't believe it! I have been very reflective lately on what was hapening in my life a year ago. Hopeful, but uncertain. Scared, but excited. I had no idea what to expect and I as far as I am concerned, I have exceeded my own expectations.
I guess I can consider myself in the maintenance phase of life. That to me is even more scary than the surgery itself. I would still like to lose 5 more lbs just to give myself a little wiggle room and to be a normal BMI. Right now I am right on the border of overweight and normal weight. I've never really paid attention to that stupid BMI chart, but now that I am so close I guess I guess it means more to me.
93 pounds down is a dream to me. Now I must work hard to keep them off:-)

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Goal baby! Woo hoo! Please keep blogging, as I get closer to goal I need some buddies in maintenance land to tell me how it is living down there! :-)
Thanks so much Sheila!You've been such an inspiration to me:-) I will keep blogging because like I said this is phase is even more scary than surgery. I need accountability through blogs :-)
Yahoo!!! Great job!! I feel like I've been maintaining for months - I haven't lost much of anything in about 6 months. You lost all the weight, you can do this, too!
