New Month how about an update ?
What a year this has been! I so rarely post .... but feeling particularly "groupie" tonight.
Surgery date: 9/20/2005
Surgery weight: 284 Decision to this this weight: 312
Today's weight: 191.5
Goal ...whenever the loss stops at this point.
People keep commenting on how small my shoulders are ... or my wrists ... or my neck....
I live in Washington DC so have to show photo id to get into many buildings ... EVERYTIME the guards look at the photo and back at me and back at the photo ... so I get to tell my story over and over again!! Amazing how ofter that gets "me too" or "I'm thinking about doing that" or " my wife is scheduled for next week" We are EVERYWHERE.

Surgery Date - Sept 15, 2005
Height 5' even
Starting weight - 260.7 (at time of surgery)
Weight now - 166.7
My highest weight, I was 277, so I'm down 111lbs since then. It's also been 24 years since I weighed this little. I still have somewhere between 35-50 lbs left to go depending on a number of things. I'm told that being heavy all my life, my bones will be heavier, so I don't really know what to expect. This is all new territory for me.
My goal weight per the charts is what I weighed at the age of 10 - but I'm aiming for 130 pre-plastics, and figure I'll figure out the rest when I get there.
