I am still here, checking in from time to time. I was 354 on July 12, 2004, today I weight 171 lbs. It is a struggle to keep it off, but I yo-yo alot as soon as i am at 178, i know i have went too far. Sorry to hear about your miscarriages. I hope you well. I do try to keep my profile updated if you ever want to check it out. ~Lori

I see the board has basically died. Where is everyone???? I'm doing good. As most know I got married in December and shortly thereafter suffered from two miscarriages back to back. So to say the least I turned to my old friend food to cope wity my pain. Not my proudest moment but I am back on track and have lost 6 pounds this month. So hopefully I can keep going. How's everyone else doing??

Hi Everyone, It's been a while, how is everyone doing. I no longer have access to message boards at work, but I think about you guys often and I hope everyone is doing well. I'm still working out six days a week and now everything is finally clicking! I broke the 183 that my body was holding on to so long.. Over November and December 2007, I stopped workin out and I had gained 9 additional pounds, after my cruise and with the holidays. So since taking charge, since the beginning of the year I'm down 17 pounds to 175! I'm working with a personal trainer and using weigh****chers to help with portion control. I don't have a goal number that i'm seeking, I just want the side effects of healthy (looking good!). See you in July! Take Care,

mona im ashamed to say i have not been on in a while my job has me working 6 days a week and i am too still loosing but not in a good way ..... i really need to gain a few lbs to be comfortable with myself...i am so proud of you i remember you from day one and all my july babies i miss them dearly!!! im glad all is well with you and i hope to get on more~~~

Hey, does anyone check here any more? As of this morning I am no longer obese--just overweight. I have now officially lost 200 pounds since RNY July 2004. I am still losing!!! Monna
