I did it!

Unbelievable! This morning the scale shows that I've lost 75 pounds. I reached my goal of being there by the trip. It may only be a fleeting moment for now, since usually when I drop weight, it goes down a couple of pounds and then back up one. But the scale really did read 228 this morning. Brad says I only weigh 40 pounds more than he does. That is so cool. Yay!

Allo Melissa, I received through the Google Alert with key words Lap-Band your blog. WOW ! I had a great joy to read ALL your journey with your new life. For myself, I am suppose to have my lap-band next month (beginning of August) I am going to pick up my Optifast liquid this afternoon. I am weighting 230lbs. I will keep you inform of my journey. I don't have any blog but will read yours and respond to it if it is OK with you. Oh we just came back from a 10 days holidy in Wyoming and we took the plane in Denver, Co. What a coincidence. I feel so glad to write you all of this, and Congratulations for your journey Melissa. Sorry for my English, I am French Canadian. Talk to you soon.
