Im looking for anyone else in the 400 plus lbs category

I'm currently at 488 lbs, and I'm looking for anyone else in the 400 plus lbs category. Being this close to 500 is a wake-up call I can't ignore anymore.

I was 472lbs in 2011 when I reluctantly went to see a surgeon about weight loss surgery. I avoided coming to terms with my weight until I couldn't walk up 2 flights of stairs from the subway station, or even walk a city block without stopping to catch my breath. I was contemplating quitting my job because of my weight. My advice is do NOT ignore it any longer. Your body is under severe stress at that weight, and the psychological aspects are also hurting you every day. Seeing that doctor and getting surgery was by far the best decision I've ever made regarding my health.
