I just figured out today that there was a forum for those of us with same anniversary months, how cool. I have liked comparing myself to others. Compared to some I am behind but for the most part I am close to everyone else. However, I have been discouraged because I have not lost any weight in the last 4-5 weeks. Starting weight: 270 Weight today: 175 Goal Weight: 130 Surgery date: 12-12-03

Surgery Date: 12/15/03 Start weight: 235 Current weight: 170 Goal weight: 128 lost: -65

I am updating my son's progress. Phil started at 368 lbs. He is now (drum roll, please) 245 lbs. He looks great. Down 123 pounds. Before his surgery he had lost 30 pounds, so he has a total of 153 pounds gone. Now I'm afraid to let him go back to college. All those girls will be chasing him. He is 6'3", blond hair, blue eyes. He has continued to loose after coming home a few weeks ago. I was wondering if he would. He tries to eat good stuff, but sometimes slips, just like I do. We both had blood work done last week and all is well. Karen
