I was 53 and weighed 437 lbs when I started out with the doctor. He first put me on a supervised diet for 3 months in which I lost 38 lbs. I had several health problems, diabetes, high blood pressure, and thyroid problems. After the surgery it took several months but I'm glad to say the only medicine that I am still on is for my thyroid, which my doctor says that after I have lost all the weight I might be able to get off that one too. They have been able to lower the dose that I take. I have lost a total of 127 lbs since I started. Just since the surgery its 89 lbs. I am able to eat most anything but of course eat smaller portions. I even went on a long weekend to visit my daughter and stayed on the diet. I have such a great support group in family and friends that makes it easy to stay on track. I was scared at first but I have such a great doctor my worries went away. Good luck auntbj

81 pounds on my end! -cheers- We're all doing so well! I'm proud of us ALL! -hugs- -Carleen

I went from size 24 (tight) down to a size 14 now (loosely!!!) Oh and no more "W's" behind the size wich s cool. I started at 261lbs (and I stand 5ft 2in) and am now 179 (clothed) - I cannot believe it - It seemed to be going slow recently but must have been a stall because then I went down like 8lbs in the last week so woohoo. Hang in there!!! we can all do it.
