My 11 months is on the 22nd, but still...I am down 180 pounds as of this morning. WOW.  What a ride...




14 pounds lost before surgery. My first ticker is when I hit onderland: this was my goal when I started on this journey.  I want to focus on that right now...once I get there I can reevaluate.

My second ticker is my dream goal. Even if I only visit there for a short time, it would be nice to see that number just once.  I am pretty sure I'll need plastics to hit this goal.

I've lost 155 pounds in 11 months here.  I now weigh 156 and have passed my original goal weight of 159 (which put me at a normal BMI of 24.9) but have revised my goal weight to 150.  I may even go to 146.  We'll see.  I've begun dating and love having my life back again!!  Life is grand!!

11 months as of yesterday. I forgot to do pictures and stats for my web site because it all seems to normal to me now.

I lost 110 pounds and have a BMI of 21.4. My weight has been stable for about 6 weeks now. I think I'm done losing, but I do seem to be getting smaller without losing weight. This is probably because I am working out with a trainer and because of loose skin being absorbed (god, I hope my loose skin is being absorbed!)

I'm now waffling about PS. I'd rather not spend the money or deal with the downtime. But I hate feeling like I'm wearing the skin of a much bigger person.

I'm trying to figure out how to maintain now. It's weird not being plugged into a system any more. I try to come up with new rules for myself but eating to rules tends to get me in trouble now -- where before it was the key to my success as a dieter.

I've done 5 triathlons and am training for a Half-ironman in Oct.
