weight loss

Thank you so much, my next weigh in is Aug 12, hope to be down another 8 pounds. Cant wait to be out of the 200's :)

I think it is a great idea. You will find lots of support here as we are all on the same journey just taking different paths.

Congrats on your loss already, that is great! 

Take care, Tara

Hi Taniagirl,  I decided to opt out of surgery last month and instead do the optifast non-surgical program, hopefully this fall.  In the meantime, have lost 17 pounds on my own!  I've been pretty silent on the boards because I wondered the same thing...whether I could still participate in the awesome and informative discussions that take place here.  Now that I see the support you yourself are rallying, I'm staying too :) So thanks for asking the question I wanted to ask...Cheers, Tracy

Yes, please stay and play Tracy - we're so happy to support anyone who is trying to get healthy with their weight, doesn't matter if you're a surgical patient or not. :)

Congrats on the 17 pounds already, that is wonderful !!  Pls keep posting too :)
