I lost a lot of weight

OMG!!! It hasn't even been a year since I weighed in at 441 pounds, bmi 65. On 10/28/09 I had the fobi pouch procedure (a variation of RNY, which also involves gastric banding) . I was 21 years old, and I had diabetes, hypertension, GERD, sleep apnea, etc, etc, etc.

I never really thought I'd lose all the weight. It seemed impossible. My origional goal was to get down to 350 pounds. I have definitely done a much better job than that. lol

Today 10/19/10, I weighed in at 180 pounds, which is a total loss of 261 pounds.

Oh my god!

Way to rock your wls and keep up the awesome work 0.~  Buuuuuut you know .... you can't just tell us .... now you totally owe pictures!  -insert some sort of evil laugh here-  [sorry insane mood today if you can't tell]

I'm down 142lbs since surgery as of last weekend and isn't it amazing?  Its gotten to a point where I need to get my internal image to catch up because I don't recognize me anymore.  lol

Great job :)

Thanks. Congrats to you as well. I totall know what you mean. We have to heal on the inside also. Take care :-)

I forgot to say I'm going to get the pics up within the week or so. I see my surgeon on the 26th, and I'm going to take some pics before and after :-)

 hehe good :)

lol half the fun of these posts is the pics . . . and I don't know about you but I kinda like the whole showing off thing.  We've worked our asses off [literally] to get to this point, and pictures are totally necessary [and fun] to flaunt the success.

I'll keep an eye out for your update 0.~

That is so amazing!   Keep up the great work! 

Thank you
