I'm very excited this weekend because I've hit my first MAJOR milestone since deciding to have surgery... I started this journey (at my consultation) at 374, which was incredibly shocking to me. I knew I was over 300 but had no idea that I was actually closer to 400. No wonder I was feeling so sluggish and run down!. I managed to get down to 349 by the day of surgery (whch was 3 months after consult) and now, since surgery (11 weeks ago tomorrow), I've lost an additional 51 pounds bringing me to 298. TWO nine eight. I'm out of the 3s and will hopefully never return! I'm so happy... I feel so much better than I did 6 months ago... It hasn't been easy, that's for sure, but this tool is working! I'm working out regularly now, really paying attention to what i'm eating and feeling good. i know there are people who lose at a faster rate, but i'm totally content with my progress. i feel GOOD raphie 374 - consult 349 - surgery 298 - today

Detroit, You are doing great!  I'm so proud of you.  We both have about the same surgery date and have lost exactly the same from surgery to today. Just curious, what does your day look like?  What do you eat? Keep going. Blessings. Patti
