This difference is only the last 100 pounds.

congratulations to you! I can't believe you lost so much weight on your own, too! you're a friggin' champ! there's no way you won't be able to achieve all your goals.

Thanks teacupnosaucer. It has been a long hard battle but one I was not willing to give up on. It took me many years to lose the weight on my own that I did. First lost about 90 pounds in a year with WW then started NS and lost another 90 pounds the second year. Then maintained around 318 for a number of years before I started to put back on some weight. In 2014 I stopped before I crossed back into the 400's but in a year was only able to lose 38 pounds so I went in 2015 to see the WL surgeon. Had to do a 6 month diet and lost another 38 pounds before I had my 3 procedure surgeries in Jan 2016. If I hadn't taken the bull by the horns and lost this weight with sheer determination, hard work and then this wonderful tool (the sleeve) I probably would have been died by now. So thanks for the "your a champ comment". I really will feel like one once I get all the excess skin removed and get to my goal weight.

It's my 1 year today.

Wow big change well done ??

Wow, you look great.
It looks like you were about the same size as my wife currently is.
Her surgery is next month, possibly, and then mine is on target for August.
