Getter Closer
I have finally lost over 100# and have just 20-30 more to go. I was nanded in August 2008 but had 2 set backs. First the port rolled and I couldnt get filled and then I had to have my gallbladder out which required emptying the band. I ran and 8K last year and have done 2 5K this year one with and obstacle course. I am feeling great, healthy and strong. I am hoping to rech goal by fall which will be 3 years

Alcohol...you do, you dont? How soon?
I am about 11 months out now, I generally go out on the weekends for a couple of drinks. I usually drink diet coke & rum or wine. Havent had any problems and it hasnt hurt my weight loss. Even though this is a lifestyle change you cant give everything up 100%, you still need to enjoy life.
