Happy Anniversary

Happy anniversary to me!  It is two years today that I had my surgery.  I am down about 190 pounds.  I still struggle with the ups and downs of five pounds.  My heart wants to lose about twenty pounds still... My head knows to lose (even though I shouldn't) only about five.  I am where i should be physically.  Not mentally, but at least I am doing well.  I have done things that I never thought I would...especially fitting into size 30 (tightly) sized pants!!!  Yippe

Congrats on the 190# and the size 30's.  I can't remember the last time I saw a 30 - Junior high most likely.  I'm looking forward to my surgery on 9/10 - also with Dr. Gandsas.  Good luck as you continue your journey - and don't make yourself crazy about the 5lbs - remember from whence you have come.

Congrats and enjoy, Dan. You've certaily earned it. DD

Congratulations Daniel! Keep listening to your heart when picking "dates," And your head when making food choices, And you’ll stay healthy and happy. Amazing 2 years! Keep it Up! Best Wishes- Dx

Daniel, Congrats on maintaining two years out! Like the others have said, don't beat yourself up over the five pounds. SIZE 30???  You look happy in your picture. Enjoy life!! Ronnie

Happy anniversary Daniel. You've done a great job. I can't imagine squeezing into 30" jeans--except maybe one leg. I bet that your heart & mind will work together and find the ideal living weight for you. Who knows, maybe you're there already!

Daniel, Congratulations!  You're a true inspiration to so many, not only with your amazing weight loss but your cookbook, as well.  Keep up the great job.  I haven't lost nearly the amount you have, but I'm with you in the size 30s and sometimes 28s.  How's the exercise regime going?  Haven't heard from you much.  Take care.
