update

Hi all.  I just wanted to update you on my progress.  I have lost 200 pounds!  My highest was 425 a couple of years ago, I lost down to 350 the day I had surgery.  Today I weighed 225!  How exciting is that?  Anyway, I am wearing a 20W on the bottom, thanks to my excess skin, and somewhere between a 1X and a Misses XL on the top.  When I got my labs back from the 6 month follow up, my protein was low normal, but other than that was perfect.  My cholesterol was 100 and my BP was 116/66.  I just wanted to share with you all.... I hope everyone is well. Take care. Ellen

Ellen, congrats to you!!!  You really have done well with this, even with all the other things going on in your life, you have worked through them like a champ.  I bet your body is thanking you from the inside for all the positive, healthy changes you have made.  That cholesterol and BP is wonderful!  I look for the day when I can have BP like that.  You're in the century club twice!   Nancy

Woo hoo!!!   Isn't it a wonderful feeling?  I remember that 200 lb mark, it's incredible!  Time for a tattoo!!!  lol!  (I got my tattoo for 200lbs lost...).  Keep up the great work!
