Today marks the one year anniversary for me ....

Today marks the one year mark for me -- I started out at 247 lbs. and today weighing in at 155 lbs. So I am 92 lbs lighter and went from a size 18 to a 8. I am feeling good today!!! Whew don't you know one year ago at this time I was in anxiety heaven playing the waiting game to get into do my surgery. I am very excited about my progress except for the fact that I have s-l-o-w-e-d down a LOT! I haven't really lost anything else in a month. I am staying stable. I hope my body is not done with losing. I think I am eating too many carbs. So starting yesterday I cut back to the basis of protein, protein, protein, and water If anyone on this board had Dr Duncan and had surgery on 1/5/04 contact me I'd love to see your results so far Good luck everyone on your journey!!!

Congradulations Wendy on your great secuss Way to go girl

Wendy, I was glad to see your message. I've been a little bumped because my weight loss has been pretty slow the past 4 months. Today is also my anniversary! 1//5/04...!! I started at 246 and now 163. That's an 83lb loss for me. I read about everyone that has lost over 100 lbs @ their anniversary. I very happy to be down the 83 lbs ,so I'm not complaining because I love the way I feel and look. I'm 27 lbs from my doctors goal weight. I hope this starts coming off a little faster. I've really been watching my carb intake and increasing protein and water. Hopefully, this will do the trick. Good luck in your journey! You've done GREAT!! Becky

You are doing awesome hun! WTG! Just think a year ago where you were WOW! Look at your new world
