oops, sorry Beth, it was you who said that I say My Dr. told me to get to_____________. I just had ane "aged" moment. Mechelle

Wow you lost 2 people!!!! You both have done so well you should be really proud! I know the thought of lugging around that extra weigh is unbelievable isn't it. Congratulations! Dawn

Thanks, Lara. I just told DH in an IM (he's at his other job) that we'd passed the 300 lb. mark. He's surprised! Even more surprised that he's just about passed me up loss-wise since he's 5 weeks behind me. He was nice about it though - he's like "Well, I did have more to lose!" He did/does... he's at 190 today... goal weight is about 175 (which is higher than the medical ideal weight --- of like 150 --- but he'd look so LITTLE I think?!) Beth There is no point at which you can say, "Well, I'm successful now.  I might as well take a nap."  http://meltingmama.blogspot.com/

I know - that IS amazing! CONGRATS on that HUGE loss! I was thinking a similar thing, my Hubby weighs 134# (he cannot gain weight & is trying so hard to get to 140) ... I have LOST 141# ... which means that I was carrying one of him on me + one of our fuzz ball kitties on my back & I just cannot imagine having that much extra weight on me .... how did we do it??

Okay, I was gonna say, think about that for a minute, 304 lbs, of fat. Pure sticky gooey fat. Where the hell where we hiding it?! Don't answer that. :-x As of this morning- since Bob is on a roll lately with the weight loss (he's four lbs short of my loss, just about to pass me up- GROWL!), we're down a combined 304 lbs. EWW EWW EWW! That's an entire pre-operative ME gone. SWOO****'s gross in a way, but still amazing. Wild, I'm not thinking about it anymore. Eww.
