Good morning OH.

wel i havent posted anything of value in quite some time.  LOL some might argue i have YET to post anything of value.  im hoping this puts a checkmark in the value category.

first a small recap.  

I had surgery with Dr Klein on january 14th at HRRH and my starting weight was 585.  i lost 60 lbs on optifast. so my day of surgery weight was 525.  

well here we are almost 5 months out and im proud to say im just 20lbs shy of losing 200 lbs!!!

yup 200

2   0   0

so to all the newcomers out there.  DONT GIVE UP!  dont get discouraged by long waits ohip bull**** and horrid optifast. vomiting soreness and food envy. cause in the end ITS ALL WORTH IT! also here is a link since i SUCK at inserting pics on here.

keep in mind i NEVER do this so you all better appreciate what im about to do here!!!  especially tracey and karen :P

WOW!!! HUGE transformation!!! Thanks for the post :) I'm frustrated at how slowly I'm losing... I'm  not even a month out and last week I stalled, and this week I only lost 3 lbs! Grrr! Nice to know I WILL get there. Thanks!

Great post Mike.  I'd say it ranks high in the value category.  Congratulations on how well you are doing and thanks for the inspiration.
