I finally hit 60 lbs down and now am in the world of the 100's! In the tittle I say "For Now", what do I mean by that? Well, this gall bladder surgery is really holding me back when it comes to working out. The doc told me 4-6 weeks before I can do any lifting - not even 3 pounders! I miss my trainer terribly and can't wait to go back. We have planned to begin working out together again in October - at the latest. I think next week I will begin working on my cardio circuits. Right now my abdomen and belly button area are really sore. I think walking up the 57 subway steps every morning is enough for this week!
As of Monday I weighted in at 197.5, I hope that I can stay between this number and 199 if I do gain anything. I really don't want to jump beyond 199 - what if I can't get back...
Anyhoo, I am planning on taking progress pics since I have reached my second goal. My first goal was 50 lbs down and the second was reaching the 100's. I have to find my camera and then get a new charger for it. Also, my belly is still kinda puffy and swollen. I thought that by now all the bloating from the crap they pump you with during surgery would be gone, ugh.
That is it for now my little ones! Bye!

New follower here! Congrats on your 60 pound loss! I'm also a NYC (soon to be) bandster. Dr. Kurian (one of the other surgeons from NYU) is doing my surgery on 9/23.
