299.2!!!
When I was in my 20s, I was so embarrassed to be over 200 pounds. I never told anyone my weight. I never imagined being over 300 pounds-that seemed absolutely absurd. Well, in June of 2013, I found myself well into the 300s-on my way to 400 pounds. It took me a while to come to terms with being 355 pounds-it seemed so hopeless!
This morning I weighed 299.2 pounds and I hope to never be above 300 again. Surgery is next Friday and I'm so much more happy and hopeful going into it in the 200s!!

Congrats!!! I never ever thought I get near or into the three hundreds either, but it happened, and I remember how awesome it was to finally get into the 2's! My next goal is 2 pounds away and is to actually weight what my drivers license says, lol, 250.
You're doing amazing, especially since you're pre-op!! Good luck on your upcoming surgery.
Congratulations! I am 5' 10" and my highest weight was 376. I did the biggest happy dance when my scale hit 299! I wanted to cry tears of joy! I am now at 291 and cannot wait to see 289! It's the little triumphs that keep us going! Welcome to the two's! My goal weight is 170 as well. Good luck to us both! I wish you an easy and speedy recovery from your surgery next Friday!
Surgery Date: 11/15/13 HW: 376 Day of surgery: 341 CW: 257 GW: 170
Congratulations. And you haven't even had surgery yet! I remember not long ago (last June) hitting that goal, and now I'm about to break 200! You are doing great and the best is yet to come!
best wishes,
Carol

CONGRATS on getting the two! I'm pre-op still but I had a two on the scale for the first time in years last week. It's a great feeling :D
