My biggest WOW moment to date.

Hello All, Well as of today I am down 150 pounds. I started out January 13, 2006 at 339 pounds and today the scale says 189. I can't tell you great I feel. This surgery has changed my life in so many ways. Today I leave to fly to L.A. for a conference and I don't have to worry about fitting in the plane seat. That is just one of the many things that no longer concern me. Thank you all for your support, encouragement and knowledge along this journey of mine. It's nice to have not been on this road alone. Life is great. Rick

Congratulations Rick!!! Great accomplishment before your surgiversary, you've done amazing! Enjoy LA and the extra room in the seat on the plane!

I am so excited for you fantastic loss....isn't life grand now?!!!! Have fun in LA and keep up the good work! Barbara

wow! How far you have come...you have done such a wonderful job. I hope you get to enjoy your trip as a mini break rather then just all buisness! Mimi

Congratulations Rick! I flew for the first time since surgery last October and almost cried tears of joy when I didn't have to ask for an extender on the seatbelt or worry about sitting on my neighbor's lap! Have fun in LA! Laura

Congratulations Rick! I, too, no longer worry about flying comfortably! Life IS great! Rebecca

congrats keep up the great work
