Hi Cindy,

Hello!  It's been so quiet of late that I haven't been checking here very often.  But, I'll take a go at this.

1. Sarah
2. DS
3. my highest known weight was 287 lbs.  That was at a medical appointment a few years ago. I don't keep a scale at home.  My weight on day of surgery was 251.  My latest weight (Sat. at the support group meeting at St. Francis Hospital in Topeka) was 220.  So I wrote 31 pounds lost on our sign-in sheet, but I am kind of torn about counting that (251-220) versus the weight I puffed up to a few days post-surgery (from the IV fluids, it put me back in the 260s).
4. ? 80 more pounds
5. fact that my taste buds prefer carbs to protein
