Hi Amber Wow you are doing an amzing job there, 173lbs I am doing quiet good myself, I am down 105lbs and have about 30-35 lbs to go to goal. My weight loss is slowing down also, only 1lbs this past week but I am happy it is still coming off. I also have a new pic on my profile, it is halfway down, it is at my brothers wedding. Jackie

Amber, I am 8/24/04 but close enough. Just think you can make an entire baby in 9 months or in our case you can lose an entire adult! (LOL) I have lost a total of 118lbs. 13 before surgery and 105 after surgery. I am very happy with my weight loss and I weigh 178 lbs. BMI is overweight which makes me very happy. I am healthy and never felt better so if it stopped today I don't think I would be upset because now it is just a game to me to see how low I can go. Keep up the good work!!!!

Amber, You look amazing - congratulations!! Like Patty, I am also an August 24th girl. I am down 114lbs from surgery, but closer to 150 from my highest weight. I still have a long way to go - probably another 80 lbs - but I am getting there! Good luck to everyone Jen

Size 18?!?!?? Sounds awesome to me! I am finally able to get my fat @$$ into a pair of 32 jeans. My top is usually between a 22/24 or 26/28. Some people don't even start out that big! I am just happy to be able to shop at places like Avenue and Fashion Bug and Lane Bryant. While I'm happy about this, others are happy they don't have to shop there anymore. Until recently, I had to buy my clothes from catalogs. But now I can shop at the "regular big-girl" stores!!! LOL Keep up the good work! *~Amber~*

Hey everyone! I am down 140 lbs. and loving every bit of it. I feel reborn and almost completely free from most of the old chains that bound me. I have alot of excess skin that still keeps me feeling pretty self conscious. My surgeon brought up plastic surgery at my last check up. I have set a new goal for myself. I have 50 more pounds to lose before I would feel ready for a tummy tuck. I have been doing all kinds of things I would never do before like camp and bike alot. I have completely changed my relationship with food. I am no longer obsessed with it. I still do occasionally crave chocolate. lol. I am in a size 14 and weigh in at 200 lbs. I can't wait untill I can say I am in the 100's again. I really need to update some of my pictures so you can see some of my progress. Good Luck and Take Care. Much love, Shelli
