well its been 6 months and I feel really good, I have lost 80 pounds and went from a size 26 jeans to a 16 or 18, depending on who makes them, I now can wear a 16 top and I have cleaned out my closet. I still have a ways to go and still need to get a hernia near my belly button fixed but I feel ONEderful. Finally people are starting to notice at church but I think many of them were afraid to say anything because I have been deathly ill in the past and maybe they thought I was ill again. one person asked if I was losing on purpose, that is why I think many were afraid to say anything. loss so far is 80 pounds I am 197 pounds! well to get to the doctors goal I have 22 pounds to go, this will be a total loss of 102 pounds and my weight will be 175 to get to my goal and to "fit" on the weight charts I have 47 more pounds to lose, this will put me at 150 and a total loss of 127 pounds I hope to get to my goal by my one year anniversary, if not sooner.
