156 POUNDS DOWN

Hello everyone. I Pray all is well with you all. Well November 7, was my 8 month anniversary and I have lost 156 pounds. I weigh 294 pounds. I was 450 pounds on my surgery day (march 7, 2005.) My husband had his on October 10, 2005. He is down 67 pounds. He started out at 393 pounds. The only thing is that after a week after his surgery, we had to rush him back to the hospital because he had terrible pains. It turned out to be, a BOWEL OBSTRUCTION. They had to do a 5 1/2 hour surgery on him. He was in the hospital for about 2 weeks, then last week he just kept vomiting up all his drinks and his vitamins and stuff, so they put him back in the hospital and they "SCOPED" him. They said he had a narrowing of his throat. They had to make his throat (?) wider. He is doing WONDERFUL now. Lisa 450/294
