    Hey all, SW Michigan here,
    Bypass completed 02/2006
    5'11, 34 y/o
    HW: 298
    SW: --its been a long time but I think around 290?
    CW: 170 (gained 5# after honeymoon & wedding month July 2016)
    LW: 143 (after being ill & med side effects)
    GW: 155-160?

    My low weight was too small for me personally (per doctor as well) She would prefer I stay somewhere around the high 150's=low 160s. I've been maintaining the last 10+ yrs right around 160-165 So I have kept it off, but now really just focusing on toning & strength, not loss (of course that last few # would sure be a bonus!)

    great to see all of the success people have had! :)

    Goal weight? 189 to start, then we will see how things go from there! 100lbs itself sounds insurmountable for me right now!
