I decided to do something about my weight when I reached 263.  I started Curves which really helped, but  they closed down,  By the time I had my first orientation meeting with Kaiser in Oct, 2008 I was down to 243. At sirgery I was down tp 229.  So it has been slow and I have had some difficulties.
