APRIL 6 2004

Anyone who celebrates thier REbirthday on that day...share your progress!!! I have gone from 300 to 210, from a size 28 stretch jean to a size 18 regular jean and can wear a size 16 in some pants, 30/32 top to a large in some tops and xl (the sleeves in a misses lg are often too tight because of hanging skin) 46DDD to a 42DD and size 14 panties to a 8 or 9 panty, 26/28 coat to a xl. COME ON!!! BRAG ALITTLE or ALOT!!! Charl

Hi, I am April 6th too. I went from 220lb to 148lb. Lately, the loss became really slow. It's good week if I lose 1lb. But according to my doctor and "weight loss planers" this is how things should go at this stage. I have 26lb more to lose before I will reach my personal goal of 122lb. I now wear size 10 pants and Medium tops (before surgery I was 18-20W, 1xl tops). I am very happy with the results. Ira

Hola Charl! I'm a 4/5/04'er... but close enough. We're very similar in our losses... I've gone from 298 to 193, a loss of 102 lbs. I've gone from a 28+ to a 14-16. And from a 44C to a 38B. I'm getting lots of postive feedback lately, and a few people don't recognize me, which is kinda cool cuz I was only "morbidly obese" for 5-7 years. My loss is next to nothing right now, I'm having spurts of loss and then weeks of nothing. I'm just about ready to go on liquid only diet for a week to see if it's my own fault. While I appreciate the loss I've had so far, I'm very frustrated at this size. I'm stuck between obese and overweight, and I have so much flapping body it's not even funny.

Well, I'm an April Niner....can I play? I started at 272, wore a size 20-22 pants, XXL tops and am currently at 197, for a loss of 75 pounds, can wear a stretch 12 pant, 14 if it doesn't give but still like Large or XL tops. I wore a 42D and now a 38C. What's funny is some 16's fit too so I guess it's just the cut of the clothes, but I sure like the 12's!!!! They make me feel sooooo slender!!!
