almost there

hi every body i am a august 24 peerson i started out at 320lbs lost 20 lbs and then had my surgery i have since lost 100 lbs gone from size 26 to 14 and cant believe it my doctor wants 20 more lbs but i have stopped and feeling great.

I am an August 27 person, and I am down 108 lbs and my dr wants 10-15 more. I went from a size 24 to a 14 and am thrilled with that. I feel good. I can walk up & down stairs, cross my legs and all kinds of things now that I could not do before. Like you, my losing has stopped. I think if I cut back on calories & increase my walking though, I'll be able to drop the last 10-15 lbs. Am trying to do it before I go for my one year check-up. YOu have done fantastic!! Congrats!! Do you want to lose the final 20? I've read that the losing continues as long as 18 months after surgery. There is still time for you to drop the last 20. How about excess skin? I have enough that if removed I'd be a size 12. Unfortunately my insurance will not cover any plastic surgery so I will live with the skin. I do not have the money to self pay. Well, gonna go now. Again Congrats.
