 Dr. Jones' first goal for me was 180lbs. I passed that goal while living in South Korea. Then we decided on 174lbs. I crossed that line about a month ago. I have been working hard toward our new goal of 158lbs. As of today, I am 156lbs! That means I have lost 148.5lbs. It’s a surreal feeling, especially considering that my head hasn’t caught up and I still see a bigger version of who I am now. It’s like looking into a funny house mirror.

I called my clinic and spoke with my nurse. After a long discussion and a lot of positive congrats from the whole team, we decided that I should try for 146lbs next. 

The nurse told me to shoot for 150lbs and see how I feel there. I also have to take into consideration that I have loose skin that weighs several pounds and denser bones from being morbidly obese for so long.

Here is a before and after of my face and my body:
