13 months later I have gone from 319 to 199!!! I never thought I would see a 1 on that scale every again! I want to scream it from the roof tops, but I live in a pretty remote northern community, so really it would just be the ravens and wolves hearing me yell, so I will yell it on here instead!

WAAHOOOOO FOR 199!!!

And here I am in my Halloween get up- I put on a bearded hat and am a woodsman! ahahhaha

That is BRILLIANT! You started at the same weight I did. I'm now 228, so hoping to get to that 199 mark by the end of January (hope to get through Xmas without gaining!).

You are an inspiration! Keep up the fantastic work! WOOHOO!

Wow you are doing great!! Our weights and heights are almost the exact same as are our weight loss progress! I started slowing to about 5-6lbs a month by about month 7 out of surgery. But I am doing a lot to maintain/gain muscle mass, so my shape is changing a lot even with just those 5lbs a month. It is so amazing!

Keep up your great work!

I've been walking (mostly) for exercise, but I know I want to build more muscle mass and prevent it's loss over the next year. I've joined a gym and I will have a trainer work with me to get me started.

I'm really looking forward to transforming my body as well! I was always althletic as a child/youth. I played ALL the team sports (usually captain of my team!), cycling, etc. But once I started university I was so busy working full time and going to school full time, the exercise was the casualty!

That's not to say I was ever skinny. I have had an obesity problem my entire life (from about age 8. But it never slowed me down until I hit my 20s. And now I'm in my early 40's! Time to get my life back....... :)

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
