THREE MILESTONES REACHED YESTERDAY!

Hi all.. Ok, before I tell you about the milestones I reached, let me tell you this... At the beginning of this year, I weighed over 300 pounds (305 to be exact). In my "pre-op" diet that my surgeon wanted me to be on to try to lose some weight before surgery I lost about 34 pounds. On the day before my WLS surgery I weighed 271 pounds. NOW, About my milestones: I weigh myself every Sunday morning. Last Sunday I weighed 207 pounds. YESTERDAY.. 1) I officially lost over 70 pounds post-op.. 2) I officially lost over 100 pounds this year (if you include the 34 pounds pre-op) AND BEST OF ALL.. 3) The 300's are long gone... I made it all the way thru the 200's... and finally arrived in the 100's!! Yesterday I weighed 198.5! WOOHOO! Only 38.5 more pounds till goal! I am so excited! Already I feel like a brand new man! Every day I thank God for the opportunity to have WLS.. it has really changed my life for the much better! -Mike -Mike

Mike, that's awesome. I am almost out of the 200's and can't wait to be in your situation. I weighed in at 200 exactly this week! I started out smaller than you, 255 to be exact, but these milestones are awesome! Can't wait to be in the 100's and to goal (150). The holidays will definitely be incredible with this change!

Mike - Congrats on your milestones, those are wonderful and lifechanging and I'm glad you are able to celebrate them! Keep up the wonderful work! Aimée 300/245/175/145
