5) How much do you exercise?
6) What is your favorite snack food?

I have lost 70lbs
My surgeon wants me to lose 75% of my excess weight - which is 129lbs
I am 59 lbs from that goal only 30 lbs from the century club
I can wear xl tops (falling off) and bottoms - down from 4x tops and 2x bottoms
Not doing well in that area - got off track during the holidays and finals
My favorite snack food is rasins or peanut butter - kinda hold off hunger
My favorite meal is chicken-(breast or wings) and a veggie(if there is room)
The best part of my body is my shoulders . . . . . I can feel my bones
