8 weeks, 45 pounds!!

Surgery date 5-27-03. Began at 343, I just hit under 300!! Hallelujah!! I give God all the glory for this surgery! I have not had a single problem (outside of not chewing up a carrot stick on time) or not thrown up once. Nothing gives me a problem, I can eat anything that I want to - I keep my sugar intake down to under 10 grams per serving. I haven't had any pop, candy, or junk food in over 2 months. That is so cool, it's just unreal!! I hope the best for everyone!!

Way to go Lori!!!!!!!! That is great!!!!!

OMG - My husband, Bill Crittenden, lived in St. Joseph, MO for many years - from about 1974 through 1987. He was a chaplain at Heartland Hospital. How Cool! My W/L is a little slower than yours - 45 lbs in just under 12 weeks, but my starting weight was only 237 (at 5'2" that's alot). It's already becoming frustratingly slow, so I need to look at getting more exercise. Keep up the good work. Betsy Crittenden Wilmington, NC
