Congratulations to all of us for making it to our one year mark!! I am amazed daily at how much better I feel and how the quality of my life has changed. I started out at just over 300 lbs and now I fluctuate between 147-149 for a total loss of about 152 lbs. I was losing pretty consistently each month until Feb hit and then it was like I hit a brick wall. I only lost .3 in that month and have been staying the same since, so I have a feeling this is where my body wants to stay, and that is okay with me.
Keep up the great work every one!

It is and always will be a struggle. I have been wearing a pedometer for a year and in the last couple of months have really quit paying attention to it and the results I download on my computer. I joined a gym back in October, not thinking I would enjoy it as I was doing all my walking out in the community prior to that, but I love going to the gym now. I am considering purchasing the BodyBugg to track my calories burned instead of just my steps. I need a new motivation. I feel stuck, though I have been very successful. I just started tracking my food on livestrong.com and I am surprised how much it has made me aware of what I am eating. Good luck with the changes you have already implemented. It is worth the effort!
Congrats to both of you! I wish I was in onderland, but hey I can't complain. My one year was March 2 and I've lose 143lbs. I'm at 220 right now and it's not coming off so I have to kick it in high gear to get to onderland. I'm very happy where I'm at but I am working hard at getting to 160ish. I have to give myself a pat on my back, I have not gone off my program one bit. I eat healthy every day and I refuse to go back to my old habits. People have asked me, how can you go a whole year without sugar, alcohol, soda, junk food etc. and I say becuase I did not put my body through this for nothing. I feel great and I'm so happy I had the surgery.
Congrats to all of us!!
Today is my one year anniversary. Last night I was so sad because I didnt make it to onederland. Just a hair off but nonetheless didnt make it. Today, I weighed in at 199.8. Hey, it put me in onederland and Im a happy camper. Im moving extremely slow but its still coming off, only a few pounds a month now and I have 49 more to go.
I need to update my picture now to.
How is everyone else doing?
