Guest guest Posted September 2, 2004 Report Share Posted September 2, 2004 I went to my doctor last week and as of then I have lost 72.5 pounds and am now officially under 300 pounds...I am at 299! I know that isn't " much " under 300 but it is still under and I will take it. It amazes me that lately I have had people stop me at work and comment on my weight loss or ask me questions because they are interested in the surgery. I had a lady tell me last week that I was an inspiration to her and the reason she decided to go ahead with the surgery. Imagine me an inspiration to someone else who is struggling with weight loss issues! My doctor also told me that I was going to be one of his success stories. I just about fell off the tabl!. A year ago I couldn't imagine being an inspiration or a success story and now I feel so much better...I actually have hope and can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Chasity 4/8/04 371.5/299/???

Guest guest Posted September 2, 2004 Report Share Posted September 2, 2004 Congratulations Chasity, I remember the first time under 300 also, and the first time under 250, and trust that I'll eventually get to my goal of " something starting with one " . But even if I don't, I know I've been a success and am MUCH happier and healthier now than I was back then.
