Hi there Shawna,,, lost a few more pounds down now to 160 pds. Not toomuch more to go to hit the 100. I am patient, It did not take me overnight to get this big..... Lorraine

Lorraine, I hope that things went well for you at the doctor today. The weight is still coming off for you and since you are close to goal... it will be a little slower--don't worry you'll get there! ~Rachel

Lorraine, you are doing exceptionally well. Good luck with the Dr. today.

THANKS BRENDA , LOST A FEW MORE POUNDS SO ITS SOON AND THEN I WILL HIT THAT 100 POUND MARK AND BE AT GOAL. I AM SURE MORE WILL COME OFF THIS IS ONLY ALMOST 5 MONTHS POST -OP.. LORRAINE

Hello sweet Lorraine, Hoep everything goes well. Are you no longer a diabetic? My doctor told me at 2 months that I was no longer diabetic. I had to show my mother how to use my old glucose monitor today and checked my sugar which was only 74. Guess the doctor was right. It seems month 4 is hard for us in the weight loss department. I know I am struggling this month too. It will happen and you are SO CLOSE to goal! Tracy

HI THERE TRACY TO YOU... I did well at the drs. today. I am now down to 160 pds. 85 pds down, The answer to your question was yes I was a brittle diabetic with nueropathy in my feet very bad, I have permanent numb points in my feet but the pain from the high sugars are gone since the day of surgery. I was taking 17 pills a day and 50 units of insulin. I now just take one blood pressure pill and no insulin and no diabetic meds at all well take care and have a good evening to you LOOKING FORWARD TO GOAL SOON THOUGH I THINK I WILL BE THINNER ., I WILL WHEN I GET THERE ...LORRAINE
