Hey Michael Congrats on the Century Club! I can't wait to bee there. I am still 58". Weight at start 197#. Weight today 148#. Goal weight 102#. Thanks so much!!! Heather W.

Updated weight- 193 Thanks Mary C

Thanks Michael and congrats! I STS this week. I guess that's ok considering I lost so much weight being sick. Maybe my body is stabilizing after that. Anyway, at least it's not a gain I suppose. Beth

Michael, My starting weight before surgery was 345. My current weight is 292 and my goal is 160. I am 5"7" and altogher i have lost 53 pounds since surgery but total weight loss because i weighed too much for my doc to do the surgery is 208 as i weighed over 500 pounds a couple years ago when i started trying to get to 360 for the surgery. I did it last August and they scheduled my surgery and i did the preop diet and lost an additional 15 pounds. So am down below 300 for the first time in over 10 years!!!!! Peggy

Peggy I bet you feel wonderful. You are doing so great. and have done so much on your own to get this surgery. That is wonderful. You are going to do great with this tool. Hugsss Barb

Barb, I couldn't feel better..have been going swimming and had to replace my swimsuit cause it was toooooo big! I am walking further now and hopefully next year i can do the walk-a-thon for march of dimes..have done it in the past and it would be great to be able to do it again..but am looking at knee surgery first....don't know how soon they will do it but hopefully next fall so i can be ready for the walkathon. I don't know about everyone else, but i am gonna be hot to trot when i get a little more weight off. the hardest part was Christmas..i swear everyone makes FUDGE!!!!!!!!!! hugs, Peggy
