Just about 7 month's out

Hi everyone,

This is also a blog entry for me....

So sorry I haven't been signing on to OH.  I sorta got hooked on Facebook and I've been busy with the kids activities.
Today May 8th at 4 days shy of 7 month's out here's my update:

I am 4.5 lbs shy of my dietician's goal of 212.  But I'm not going to stop here.  I'll stop when the weight loss stops.
I am now down to 216.5 lbs.  That is a loss of 156 lbs overall, 133 lbs from the actual surgery date.
My waist is now a 38.  I was a 40 at 6 month's out, a 42 at 5 months out, a 44 at 4 months out and 56 before I started this journey.
My shirt size is still at XL.
I reached a mini goal of weighing less that 220 lbs.

I did have a another stall this past month.  But I did still lose 9 lbs since being 6 month's out.
Next month I *hope* to be a size 36 waist, but I recently had knee surgery to repair a torn meniscus and havn't been able to walk .

Here are pictures I promised that were *just* taken:

Your doing great Kevin; your weight loss is tremendous. Congratulations!
