You are celebrating by posting this milestone here! We are celebrating along with you! You look so much younger and so much happier.

What helps me when I'm feeling bogged down is to remember what it felt like to be morbidly obese. I make a list of all the down sides of it. I think we forget a little how really miserable it was. I don't ever want to forget or I might end up there again. I also think about all of the little day to day things that are so effortless now. I sit in a bar stool height chair at work, and it was so hard to haul myself into it 127 pounds ago. I almost couldn't do it. Now I hop right into it so easily. Every time I do that I remind myself of how wonderful it feels to be able to get in that chair so effortlessly. Those little things are celebrations in themselves! Please don't ever stop posting Lisa, I enjoy seeing your progress and reading your posts!

Yes, yes - EXACTLY. Every day is a celebration. I get such joy and pleasure from things most people (those who have never been morbidly obese) take for granted, simply because they can't fathom the difficulties that those ordinary things held for us. And I gotta tell you - chairs is one of them. Oooh how I despised chairs of all sorts back in the day. Concerns about fitting into them, spilling over them, breaking them... ooh, not good, horrible memories.

Celebrate the little things - because they're HUGE.

Wow, what a great amount of weight you've lost! That's fabulous

Get yourself fired back up and excited - jump into the boards, talk about the things that you can do now, that you couldn't before...get excited again and share that motivation....
