Dag Terri..... That is awesome...!!!! I wish I was like you and you started out with less weight than me I started at 350lbs and have only lost 56lbs... Im so happy to hear this surgery is working for someone. Are you able to eat much at all? What is you sceret?? Please do share. I wish you continued success.. TJ

Great job Teri, I know what ya mean by never having been able to loose it on your own, I started out at 250 im only 5'5" and am now down to 142 when I hit that 148 mark and my BMI finally came back as normal I celebrated. I eat most anything I want but do make sure to get in atleast 80mg of protien a day and 64+ ounces of water. I work out 4-5 times a week and am finally able to work on my stomach muscles or what is left of them. Keep up the good work all of you its a bumpy road but one well worth traveling. Smile Sue

CONGRATULATIONS on Terri.....This is wonderful that you are almost at your weight loss goal.

OMG Terri! That is awesome! 105lbs in less than 5 months!! I had my surgery on 3/20 and I am only down 74lbs. I guess I shouldn't say "only" because I would have never have been able to do it any other way! I guess I just need to exercise more and I will see more of a loss. It's just so hard to find the time! But congrats on your fabulous loss and keep up the good work! You will be at your goal in no time at all!
