13 lbs to GOAL

Weigh in at support group meeting tonight and man was I floored. I am now at a total lose of 172 lbs and I am 13 lbs to my goal weight. Words cannot say how much happiness I am feeling. I cannot thank Dr. Tran enough for giving me this tool. YEEEEESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!! Luis

HOLY COW! That is amazing! You are such an inspiration to me. I just woke up Luis, so I missed the meeting (obviously), how was it? I weigh myself every Thursday with my home scale. Today is 6 weeks since surgery and I am officially down 44 pounds. 50 pounds to go! 172 pounds gone forever .. 172 pounds off yours joints, bones, muscles .. absolutely incredible! I wish I could hug you! Tara

Hi Tara Well Good Morning, or should I say Good Evening. Thanks, yes, it is amazing. The meeting went well, but Laurie was real upset. The guest speaker was good, but only about 15 people showed up tonight. Maybe everyone is on vacation, I hope. She was pissed. Congrats on your 44 lbs, that is great, keep up the good work. Soon you will be posting your almost goal weight. It will be here before you know it. My bones, joints and muscles are screaming right now for joy, as well as my heart and lungs and my whole body. Dr. Tran is Da Bomb. I can't thank him enough. I'll take a raincheck on that hug. Luis

Congratulations!!!! That is great!!! You'll be at goal in no time at all. Maggie

Thanks Maggie Yes, I hope to be there soon. I hope your trail goes as well as mine has. Thanks again. Luis

Hi Linda Thanks for your kind words. It is great to have support all around me, that is what has kept me on this road to success. Sept 11 is my one year post op, Don't know what the Mrs has planned yet, but I will mention the get together that is planned. Hope to meet you as well. Luis

Congrats to you, Luis! That's awesome! You are an inspiration to everyone here on the board. Hope to meet you at the September 11 Dinner! -Deb

That is fantastic Luis! Congratulations! You should be very proud of yourself. Keep up the good work. You'll be at goal in no time flat. We want pictures as well! Take care, Michelle

Hi Michelle Proud indeed, also amazed, on cloud nine, stunned and still in shock are some additional words I am using. Thanks so much. My recent picture is up on my profile, but I will surely put my GOAL picture up when I get there. Thanks again. Luis
