So I just had my 1st rebirthday - October 25th - and I have lost 202 lbs. I plan to lose at least another 148, which would put me at 150 lbs. Yes if you do the math that means I was 500 lbs on surgery day - wow!!! I feel so good now, I can do almost anything it feels like. I can walk where ever I want to sit where ever I want to. I can stand for as long as necessary now. I don't mind waiting in long lines. I can sit in a booth at a resturant. I fit in the chair at the dentist and the eye doctor offices. I have the confidence to do my official job now, which is "Judge's Clerk" Before it felt like everyone was staring at the fat girl on the bench, now it feels like everyone is staring at the cute girl on the bench lol just kidding, it just feels normal, I feel like a normal person instead of a circus freak. It has been a long time since I have felt this way. I am smaller now than I was in high school. I still don't weigh what my drivers license says but I am getting closer. Thanks to all of you that have been with me so far on this journey and thanks to all of you that join me now. ~~~~~ Jeremy

Jeremy, happy anniversary! I remember the day you and your partner (and your gramma?) left Idaho on your journey to a new life. Hard to believe it has been a year already. 202 lbs is an awesome weight loss! Are you still losing steadily after a year, or has the weight loss slowed down? Kix
