So it all started for me last August. Had my first consult with the Surgeon and weighed 546 I'm ashamed to admit. Thanks to my Insurance Company I had to go through 9 months of NUT and Management visits etc. Doc said he wanted me to try and loose as much weight before surgery as possible because every pound dropped would help since I was already very high risk being so big. So the dieting bagan. The morning of my surgery I weighed 505lbs.

This morning I decided to stop by Doc's office and weigh in. I'm happy to report I'm down to 442lbs. That's 63lbs since surgery and over 100lbs combined since I started the whole journey! I still have a way to go before my eventual goal of 250lbs. But I'm extremely proud of myself right now. I could have never thought I would have come this far.

Good for you! You have earned bragging rights, Nate.
