WooHoo down 150lb!!!!

Well another personal milestone achieved. I am 150lb in just under 6months. Another 60lb to go. It is amazing how much I watch what I eat. I am so thankful that Dr. Juarez gave me the tool to be on my way to a healthy new life. My reward to myself is to finalize my trip today to Europe in Sept. My goal is to be down to my goal weight by then. When I left Germany in 1982 I weight 190. I haven't been back since, when I return I will weigh the same as when I left.

Congradulations, Micheal. I think you have done an amazing job. And isn't it funny how much more you have to watch what you eat!! For me I have to count proteins and I do not eat much that isn't protein related!! The surgery has been such a tool for me in learning more healthy eating habits. BTW. I live in Germany, near Frankfurt. I am over here with US Military. Email me when you are coming if you want and I will be happy to support you through your trip. Sept will be the big anniversary month for us all huh? Take care and keep up the good work. jacqueline

Welcome to the club! It's a little exclusive right now, with just men in it so far. I think there is only 3 of us, in fact. You at 150. Me at 151. and Darlene's Hubby at 159. Great feeling, ain't it? I've got about 60 pounds to go too. 56, actually. We're doing so great! On track for the one year aniversery, ain't we? Hmmm.... Europe.... I so want to return to Scotland. Maybe that'll be my treat for making goal!
