Becca, Hearty congratulations! I am so impressed with you. You've reached an amazing milestone. Welcome to the club! Kathryn

Michelle, congratulations! You've done so well. I'm bouncing from 166/167 right now so I've lost 110-111 lb (down from 277 day of surgery). I went into surgery wearing a size 26/28 and am sitting here wearing size 12P pants and a Med top. I'm still 17 lb away from my surgeon's goal for me of 150. The weight is coming off VERY slowly now, but since I don't exercise and eat whatever I want (as long as what I want is protein-rich lol), I am definitely not complaining. Life is so very good. Best of luck on your upcoming surgery. -joanne s

GREAT JOB you did it I am so happy for you just think when in your life could you have done that with out WLS you did it and no one can take that away from you lynn 381/257/???

Wow Michelle! What an awesome transformation! Good luck with your hip replacement! I'm also a fellow 8/3'er. I guess I'm doing good. I started out at 254 and am down to 145-148 and am bouncing around. I've lost 106-109 lbs of the 114 that I need to loose. I've gone from a 26 to a 6/8. Unfortunately lately I've been wanting to eat constantly! I don't know why...but I just want to eat...and then eating like today definately won't help me to loose those last few lbs. I ate pretty much nothing but junk. ((sigh)) I feel like crap today and I know it's all my fault...so it looks like I'll be going back to the "basics" and try to get back on track. Thanks for posting. Kristy 254/148/140

I can't wait to be there, too! (Want to know a sceret? I broke my goal down into smaller steps, and that's my next goal: To be in the OVERWEIGHT category! After that is my goal weight of 135.)
