3 week update....
Wow I have to say this is the most amazing thing that has ever happened to me.In 3 wks I have lost 58.6 lbs,my energy level is through the roof,and I feel 110% better than I have felt in a very long time.I havent had to use my cane or walker 1 time in the past week.One thing that has bothered me some is I have started looking into purchasing exercise equipment and it seems so far that everything has a weight limit of 350 lbs,so I guess for me that means all I can do for now is continue walking.Iam slowly experimenting with new foods ,still dont have much of a appetite can normally only get in 3 or 4 bites per meal but have been doing very good with the liquid intake.Please keep me in your prayers.

Fabulous job! Way to go! I find that walking is the best - can't wait till summer when I can swim again. Congrats on the liquid intake - that is my downfall - I really have to work at it. I do think a lot of exercise equipment has weight limits but you will be able to use them soon enough. I have a treadmill at home that I use and want to get an elliptical trainer in the near future.
Best wishes and congrats!
