Post-Op 243: Happy 8-month anniversary to me!

This will be quick, but I just had to post about my eight-month anniversary!! Wow - I cannot believe it's already here!

Well, the scale finally moved back down to where I was before my period! YAY I feel so much better! I am again at 209! This was my past week:

8/22/05: 209.0 (-115) (32.7)
8/23/05: 210.5 (-113.5) (33.0)
8/24/05: 211.0 (-113) (33.0) GRRRRRRR My period is messing things up!!!
8/25/05: 210.5 (-113.5) (33.0)
8/26/05: 210.5 (-113.5) (33.0)
8/27/05: 210.5 (-113.5) (33.0)
8/28/05: 210.5 (-113.5) (33.0)
8/29/05: 209.0 (-115) (32.7)

That 210.5 sure was stubborn! I hope I won't see that again!

Below is what I posted on my website's opening page:

Eight months – I can’t believe it!! I also can’t believe I am down 115 pounds! Sometimes it seems to crawl by, but man o’ man – then I see the numbers and I know I am doing fantastic!!! I am just 50 pounds away from my goal of 159!! I am loving life! I am able to wear CUTE, normal-size clothes, people are complimenting me endlessly and I just enjoy seeing myself at this new size. God is so very, very good!!!!!

And here's what I wrote on my stats page:

WEEK 35 -August 29 209!! (total loss -115/BMI 32.7)
The weight loss was slow, then sped up, then regressed and then started back up! haha Very topsy-turvy. But that's ok because I see how I am moving forward! I am in the single digits of the 200s - I cannot believe it!!! In these eight short months I have moved through the 320s, 310s, 300s, 290s, 280s, 270s, 260s, 250s, 240s, 230s, 220s and now 210s. YAY for me!!! Isn't that AMAZING!!! This journey just gets better and better. I know I am so blessed. Thank You God for my blessings, and please bless everyone in every phase of this journey.
