BigLew

Well its been a week of great things I finally went to cedar point and got to ride the ride I was told 10 years ago I was to big for that made me feel awesome. And yesterday I finally hit 100 pounds lost, and today I've hit over that at 102 pounds lost I've lost the weight and I'm lost for words........

Easter last year Easter this year major difference

Can also say not only did I hit 200 land this week last week I bought 46 waist paints down from 56-58 waist

Well I did it I did it I did it today as I fight back the tears to tell you all this today marks 5 months to the day that I had my surgery and I got a surprise I stepped on the scale today and I saw 299 yes you heard me right 299 I started at 384 pounds back October of last year I just can't believe it I'm very emotional today after seeing this I have not been below or even at 300 in over 10 years so this is a badge of honor for me God has truly blessed me I know people have a difficult time after surgery but I didn't I had no pain no nausea no acid reflux or heart burn like I said truly blessed. I have still a long way to go in this journey and I'm excited to see summer come I work a physical job outside so the pounds will drop off in the heat this summer I'm also looking toward to my first return trip to cedar point I have not been in about 10 years since they told me I was to big to get on the rides this is turning out to be a great beginning to a great year and a new beginning for not just me but all of us good luck to you all I have great love for you all because you are my new friends/family thanks for reading see you soon

Very Hot if you don't mind me saying

Congrats I'm almost there myself, I'm 8 pounds away from hitting that goal myself i cant wait

Before and after so far left me 1 week before surgery right today

Ok cool. The way I read it I thought your doctor wanted you to go back to shakes. More power to you!! Na it was his suggestion if I wanted to meet my goal to hit that under 300 mark by the end of the month to do that and since I can't eat much anymore anyway shakes will be easy

70 pounds in 3 months is awesome. Why so much pressure for February? Personal Goal i want to be under 300 for the first time in 10 yrs its not pressure its motivation

Well I had my 3 month check up and the doc said I'm doing great I'm down 70 pounds but I'm stalled out again and I told home I want to be below 300 by end of February so he said go back in my shakes and they will do it so for the month of February I will be strictly on shakes must reach this goal failure not an option

Well today I hit 70 pounds lost I feel great

I'm 16 pounds from being under 300 pounds for the first time in 10 years I told my wife there will be a party with a cake with that number on it you have to celebrate these things it's what motivates us to keep on keeping on I'm so excited I can't wait

Barb how's your weight loss coming

I eat what I want but way less and I try and stay away from the pop as they say moderation is the key!

Thanks I got more to go but it feels good what's already gone let me tell you
