Surgeon Testimonial

Larry Hobson
Dr. Hobson is The Man! He was somewhat quiet, but a quick talker. He was kind of laid-back too. Confident and caring. My liver was big but he completed my surgery with no complications. I appreciate his bedside manner.rnrnrnrnrnrn

Getting there

After a stall, weight loss is picking back up again.  I now weigh 352.2 pounds, for a total loss of 75.8 pounds.  Slow and steady wins the race...Yeah me!

I've made a personal goal to have shed about 40 more before my vacation.  I figure 4-5 pounds/week will put me on target.  Pray for me to do that thing y'all! :D

All my best to the OH family.

I bought a scale and some dumbbells (5 lbs).  Okay, I've only lost 6 lbs. since January.  That sucks, but I have no one to blame but myself.

So, I have to re-group and focus because I want to sashay when I go on vacation later this year.  I have my stride back; that's good. Yeah baby!

How to break plateaus?  Somebody tell me...and thanks.
