Before and After Pics -- Nearing 100 pounds

Hey fellow March'ers: After a 4 week plateau, I've lucked into a few days of quick weight loss (about 1 pound/day for the past 6 days). Last July, I was 347. At surgery, on 3/8, I was down to 330. Today's nice number - 256 - 9 pounds and counting from the big century mark. Here is a before and after comparison: July 2004 -- http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v630/harbor/04.jpg August 2005 --http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v630/harbor/amissourireunionandaugustsuevisit05.jpg Another view -- http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v630/harbor/amissourireunionandaugustsuevisit04.jpg I got tired of losing hair everyday and decided that Uncle Fester would be my new role model. Have patience plateauers -- you will be able to turn it around. Now if I can just get my paperwork together to sue the pants off BCBS (a $5000 reimbursement on a $17000 sugeon bill) I'll be good. Yours, up to the teeth, Harbor

WOW WTG UUUUUUUUUUUU LOOOOKKK GREAT AND I cand see you are sure feeling it!! This journey is a mazing isnt it?!!!!! I wish you a most peaceful and blessed day. CHER -65

It's like being re-born..a totally Zen thing! On behalf of Uncle Fester, Jon Luke, Michael Jordon and myself -- I thank you for your kind words relating to the folically challenged! Cheers! Harbor

Harbor, You look sexy as anything!! There is nothing more sexy than a bald man!!! Way to go!!! Michelle

Michelle my belle - On behalf of Yul Brenner, Telly Sevales and that irish lass who sang the Prince song in the 90's-- I thank you! Harbor

Very nice, Habor. Guess you like the water and boating, eh? Looks fun. Wish I could just go out on a boat and jump in a lake an swim around with the fish. Do you do that? Huggs, Heidi

Heidi -- Actually, I hate boats. I like harbors. My best friends are sailors, so I've spent a lot of time on boats. They were a nice diet aid - 30 minutes on Lake Michigan was like a trip to a Roman Vomitorium (shades of Karen Carpenter). My friends just retired, sold their home and are sailing down to spend the rest of their days island hopping between Florida and South America. Check out their blog at: http://scottsuesailaway.blogspot.com/ Cheers! Harbor

You look like a new man bald men are HOT ..... LOL .... keep up the great work.... Shelly

Thanks Shelly - The great thing is that we are all doing well! Just think - in a year or so we could all get together at a MO convension and be incredibly attracted to each other and think -- well, we earned the right! Looking forward to that day! Harbor

Harbor, You look fantastic and you really need to change your posting picture!! Congradulations!!!! Terri
