    Good for you! I was 340 at my highest so right where you are. I am almost 8 months out and down to 208! It is an amazing tool and this site has a bunch of amazing people on it! I suggest you look for a January thread so you will have people having surgery around when you are. Then you can compare with others going through the same things at the sa.me time. Best wishes to you!

    P.S. You are gorgeous! ;)
