Topic: Today is the Big Day!!!!
I am one year out from my surgery. I have lost 106 pounds. What a year it has been. At times it seemed like it was dragging on, but now that I look back it went so fast. The only regret I have is that I didn't do the surgery sooner.

Happy Anniversary JD! This is my one year also. I've gone from 280.5 to 175.5. I am about 20 lbs from my surgeons goal weight. I would like to probably go a little more than that. Isn't it just wonderful! I feel great! Keep up the good work and we will both be at our goal weight soon.
Topic: 1 YEAR BANDIVERSARY!!!
It's been 1 year to the date. My 373 lbs body is down to 243. My BMI is down from 53.5 to 34.9. My pant size is down from 52 (tight) to 36.. I'm about 55 lbs from goal. I finally had the roll of film developed that had my pre-op pictures on it and will be posting those soon.
Topic: :help: Just over one year
I am just over one year, and 7 lbs from my goal weight. I have lost a total of 185 lbs, and am now searching for a plastic surgeon. I fear that there are new regulations for my insurance (BC/BS Federal) that will prohibit the surgery being covered. Have any of you dealth with this?
Drop me a note!

I have my Mackinac Island socks on, today. They're red, white, and black. They also have the Mackinac Fort on them. I like them because they're warm! Jane

Hi Sheila
That's a beautiful quote. I copied it, and I'm going to post it on my support group web-site.
Congratulations to you, too! I'm so proud of us all! I'm at a slow spot, right now. But I know that the weight will start dropping, again. I, also, talk to myself when I start getting frustrated. It usually works.
Take care and "keep looking up". Your WL Sister, Jane
