WOW!! Thats awesome! I am at 315 now, pre-op, so that is very encouraging! I am 5'7, so I doubt I will get down to that, I would look anorexic! I am aiming for 160, but would be thrilled with 180! ;) Good job! Thats just really amazing to be able to loose that much weight, I bet your life has totally changed! You should post somre before and after pics in your profile to share with us! Brandi

Wow Linda - that is just fabulous! Thanks for popping in with that little bit of encouragement!!! Way to go! BTW, did you get skin removal done at all? Dina
