Finally broken the barrier 10 stone gone forever!!!!!

[lyzzyanne]

This morning I 'finally' broke the ten stone barrier!!!!
This last six weeks or so it has been really really difficult, I have been careful about what I eat but have hit a huge stall, so it was great to finally see the scales drop by 4 lbs.

I am now 10 stone 3 lbs (143 lbs) lighter than this time last year.
My clothes have dropped from size 32 to size 18.

I am into the 14 stone bracket for probably the first time since I was 14!!!

My BMI is down from 54 to 32.

Life is so good AND they have said that they will do my hip replacement at last!!!

I have done a few things I have always wanted to do, scuba diving, got into my sons sports car, managed to sit on a plane with seat belt to spare and table flat down. I can now sit in all the seats at work with arms, I can ride my bike, I can anything now that I want to!!!!

I am so proud of myself

Well done you - you've done brilliantly. And thank you for sharing pics I fancy scuba diving one day - and getting on a plane without a belt extender would be good! Any top tips to share? x x

Not sure about top tips, but I think its a long game and you have to stick it out. I have brilliant restriction but I don't get the immediate dumping thing, although I do get late dumping that gives me awful tummy ache and extra time in the loo !!

I have found that success is the greatest spur on, I want to lose around another two stone but if I don't quite get there I won't lose any sleep over it. I really didn't expect to be here a different person less than a year later!!!

Thank you

[lyzzyanne]

Thanks everyone, I always look out for Shelley and Yve as we were all 'done' within a few months of each other!!!

I have also found that having a buddy has been brilliant, Andy1968 step forward!!! We had the same surgeon, operated within a week of each other, have met at the clinic afterwards and we message each other, that gives me great encouragement, someone I can chat to who KNOWS what its like.

Its good to count your blessings especially if you are having a bum of a day!!
