I was on a stall for 4 months, and recently lost another 5 lbs. So I hope I am still losing as I would like to lose another 30 lbs. and I can't wait for plastics. It takes great discipline to stay on track, but I am determined to get there! Margo 334/193/160

Topic: A new WOW!!!

My mom, who is always giving me her hand-me down clothes that I don't like, tried to give me some pants Sunday. This has been a habit for years, and always a downer for me because they never fit, are always too small, and it usually led to a discussion about my weight and how I needed to be more disciplined and exercise more. Mom is not skinny, but she has always been smaller than me since I was 13 years old. I started to refuse, but she never takes no for an answer. So, I went to the bathroom and I tried them on. After a few minutes, I brought them back to her. " Sorry, they don't fit. (BIG pause).......They are too BIG!!!"

I loved the look on her face.

it's a slow process for me right now, I've joined Curves (love it) and it has helped me pick the losing back up. I've lost @ 124 lbs and still need to lose @ 50lbs. I'm determined to get there, please continue to pray for one another.

Hi, Lou Ann, This has been a trip, hasn't it? We are all so lucky! I am still losing VERY slowly, now. Am down to 164 pounds from 312. I would like to see 155, but am comfy where I am. Cannot do plastics as our ins won't cover it. But thats ok. At least I am healthy now. I thank God every day for this surgery it saved my life. Rhonda 312/164/155?

I am still losing about 4-5 lbs a month. I am content knowing that I am still losing. I would like to lose about 20 more lbs and then the rest would be plastic. I also know that I can eat more than I used to, and have to work hard to keep the food under control. I too, weigh myself every day and try to make sure that I excercise at least 3-4 times a wee****rtainly don't want to ruin this great chance I got to make a differnence in my life. I do love the "new" me. Linda 367/182/?

thanks, tracy! it's been quite the amazing experience. and you -- you're down to 152 lbs! that's wonderful. i'm just an inch taller than you, and presently at 204, so i've got a ways to go yet. but i'm feeling SO wonderful, i could probably be happy at this weight...but i really, really want to see a "1" as my first number! take care. deb
