highest weight: 333 pounds (I know I gained after my last "weigh in" in the doctors office so probably it's more like 340 pounds)
current weight: 151 pounds (7/12/11)
I've been at goal (165 pounds) for 6 months now and now on maintence.  I tend to go up and down depending on time of the month and such!

Hey Janice,   Can't you talk to them about getting a DS surgeon on staff?  There's only 1 in the whole state of NJ, and Dr. Greenbaum is a titch away from Philly.  Great skills, but North Jersey needs a DS surgeon too!!!!   Keep mentioning how much business (and follow up care) they are losing to Pomp, Roslin, Inabnet, etc in NYC because they don't offer the DS!!!     Mary C

I know this group is adding more surgeons on board.  Will suggest to them during our team meeting this week.  Thank you for the advice.

in north jersey, we have 12 world class ds surgeons ,ust accrose the river.  i live on the Pennsylvania borer near high point, and they are only 40 miles away ,,, to bad these docs think of themselves as comprehensive or advanced and not offer the DS.......I'm going to Omaha for my ds,,next week,  distance is not a question.
