    Congrats. Thanks for sharing your story. I'm hoping I can go off my CPAP when I get down to a healthy BMI.

    This is amazing!!! I've been putting off going to the doctor because I am afraid of what I might hear.

    Congrats Agent J! YOU ARE AMAZING JAMIE! I love having you as my friend. I worry that you don't eat enough, but happy for your great loss. I have totally cried when doctors suggested that I would never lose weight unless I got gastric by-pass. I am so proud of you!! :flowerforyou:

    Good for you! I am so glad you "by passed" the surgery." There are life long ramifications for taking such drastic measures, but I know it is also life saving for some. A friend of mine had the surgery and it did not take away her desire to over eat. She lost some weight but still had to make life style changes. She remains over weight 3 years later. Not as much as she was but overweight nonetheless. Keep going. Don't give up! My sister has been in your range and she has steadily lost with the same resolve you have.
    Keep it up. I would have loved to be a fly on the wall and see your docs face when she saw what you accomplished. Just plain fantastic!

    Absolutely wonderful results. Just so you know, when you left, she/he probably talked you up to the rest of her patients for the day, maybe even the week. I know I love to talk up the improvements to my patients and hear some of the other providers doing the same.

    Congrats!! That is really wonderful!! It kind of saddens me that the doctor was telling you that surgery was the only way to lose weight...and that he/she is telling other patients that! You proved them wrong in a great way! :)
