You are I are alot alike. I started my journey at 264 lbs and I'm currently 158. I wear mostly size 8 and some 6's. I'm still trying to lose 8 more pounds. That would be my personal victory. I've plateau and I go up 3 lbs then back down. I feel fabulous but I want to make it to my personal goal. Great job!

jasleeve, I'm great. Just started a new business, so I've been SUPER busy!

thank god, i dont gain. i only keep going down or stay the same. my ultimate goal is 135 but i might be too small there so idk! congrats on ur success!

Congrats Jasleeve! I recently read through your whole complications thread. The great part about reading about it this late in the game is that I didn't have to wait to find out the outcome. I'm glad things worked out well for you in the end, even if it was a terribly rocky road at the beginning. I'm to the point that I'm willing to risk a couple months of pure hell to get this weight off. Thanks for sharing your story!

That's awesome. Truly an inspiration. great job

Very awesome!!! Congrats!!!
