Horray For 205!!!

Hi Everyone: I'm completing my 34th week of post surgery life and I am more excited than ever. I lost 2 pounds this week and my weight now stands at 205 pounds. That's a 168 pound loss and my lowest weight since 1974. I'm healthier than I've been in the last 15 years and although my PCP is trying his best, he can't find anything wrong with me. My waist is now 34 from 52, my shirt size is medium from 3 XL, I have more lean muscle as the result of weight training and according to most people I run into on a daily basis, I look great. I know some of you get on me about vanity but what am I supposed to do, deny the facts (LOL). This journey is not only a way to a healthier life but a real learning experience. I have learned so many things from all of you that has helped me in achieving the results I now enjoy. I look forward to the many exciting days to come as a healthier, happier person.
