Its hard for me to believer that just one year ago yesterday, 10/0405, I had my surgery. Although the begining wasn't all that great, the results have been absolutely wonderful. As of now I've lost 165 lbs. I am so excited its hard to explain. My sizes have gone down dramatically and although it may not excite some people, I bought a suit at Target. Just to be able to buy clothes off the rack at any store but a big and tall makes me happy. I've still got a few pounds to go to reach goal but I'm more confindent than ever that I'll make it. Through the support of my family and friends, not to mention faith in God I've made it this far and will make it until I reach goal. If anyone has any questions about whether to have the surgery or not, just ask me or anyone else who's had it and made a success of this incredible tool. It is indeed worth it.

Richard, what a wonderful success! I know what you mean - it is a thrill to try on something in a regular size, in a regular store, and have it fit. I wonder if we'll ever get over the excitement? I don't think I'll ever take for granted the transformation I have undergone. Congratulations to you! Sheryl

Congrats, congrats, congrats. I understand the excitement of being able to shop at Target - I just bought clothes there for the first time a few days ago. It felt pretty darn sweet. Good luck on reaching goal - Kellie
