Hi Bernie! I'm down 95 lbs now, but I just found out I'm severly anemiac and protein malnourished. And I'm losing muscle. So with that being said, I don't feel very happy about almost reaching my 100 lb mark like I thought I would. I'm on iron supplements and taking 2 prenatel vitamins a day, and I'm starting to feel much better. I just can't eat much still, which bothers me because it makes it hard to get all my protein in. I'm working on it. I'll let ya know how it goes....Good luck to you you are doing awesome!!!............Dorean

Hey Everyone!! Just uploaded new 4 month out pics!!! Jodell and I are so excited about how far we've come. --Dave

I had my surgery on 3/20. My weight that day was 411. Now I'm down to 318. It's amazing, 93 lbs in less than 4 months. Hoping to be down 100 by they 20th. That would be awesome. No real stalls yet, I've had a couple of slow weeks, but then BOOM, I get on the scale and have lost another 5-10 lbs. I do find it to be a bit embarrassing to tell people how much weight I've lost. I'm still so big. I've got about 150 lbs to go. I feel good though. I'm the smallest I've been in 10 years. Life is good!

Great work on how far you've come. What a blessing to be mobile after such a tuff post-surgery recovery. You're my hero! --Dave

i really think people with bigger numbers just tend to post them more. there are plenty of us who are not losing as fast. AND THAT'S OK! i don't blame the big losers for "bragging" when they toss out their stats at every chance (i can't say I wouldn't do the same), but i do wish they would include the disclaimers ... start weight/age/height/sex/activity level/etc. your success is measured by YOUR progress and health improvement. don't worry about everyone else!
