One year ago I was a much sicker person. Today, I am as healthy as can be. I am no longer Diabetic. Yup, no insulin and no oral meds. I take this time to thank the good LORD above for showing me the way to travel. Anyone out there who is considering this surgery, I have only lost 80 pounds this past year. Yup only 80. But I have regained my health. Maybe, just maybe I'll live longer. To all those who are on the road now, KEEP the faith. You can and will be a better person. I wish all of you a blessed life.

Hey Lesli, You can do it. You have such a wonderful attitude. I am about 25 pounds until my goal and it has been the hardest to loose. I feel I am on a stand still. But like you, if I don't loose another pound I would still be happy. Good Luck and keep us posted! Hugs, Christine 307/175/150

My heart goes out to you!!!!!!!! I will pray for you to get through this horrible tragedy. I know what you mean about getting unwanted attention. Hang in there and get help to deal with this. ((((((((((((((Hugs)))))))))))))) Christine

Hi Emma: My best wishes are with you. I had a very emotional moment on the way to work today, as I realized that my 1-year anniversary is coming up (May 20th), and I have not hit the 100-pound lost mark yet.....(80 pounds gone - gaining and losing the same 5 pounds since March). I have watched and learned a lot from this website, and I have increased the water, protein, and excercise. I believe that I will hit the century-mark eventually, but even if I don't I am trying to look on the (very) bright side: -I can walk for 3 miles without feeling like I am having a heart attack. -excessive Sweating is a thing of the past. -clothes actually fit and look good on me. -I can shop in most clothing stores. -I fit in airplane seats. -I actually eat better than I have in YEARS (nutrition-wise). -I do not feel "guilty" eating and enjoying food in public. -I do not have to "hide" anymore. -I am not tired all the time. -Excercise is no longer a foreign term for me. If I do not lose another pound, (and maintain this weight-loss) I have accomplished SO much, that it would be silly to have regrets...That said, I really want these last 20 pounds to come off, and I am going to work like hell to get there......lets stay positive together!!!! We CAN do it! Life sure is a lot better these days! Much love to you - you are NOT alone! Lesli 300/220/180?
