Hello all:

Not been with MFP for long. Been losing for just over a year now. It is so nice to be able to weigh in on most scales now. I am now below the 350 pound mark. More to go but loving it.

Give me a shout if you want to visit.

    Dude, I can't wait for it. My wife dreads going to the Dr because he weighs her. I have to tell him my weight...for now!

    I recently looked at my medical records and had to laugh, not a good laugh, all my weights were "XXX" as stated by the patient. I went back at least 5 years looking for one that I actually got recorded. To be fair about a year ago my doctor did get a scale that went to 400 pounds but it still said tilt when I got on it. Not know :laugh:

    I still remember an appointment when the nurse challenged me to be able to weigh on the 350 max scale. Well it did not happen then.

    Udail51,

    Sorry my computer was just about out of battery last night when I posted so I had to hit "post" really quickly before it shut off! I am so proud of your 119 pound loss! That is simply wonderful!

    When I was at my heaviest I would stand "backwards" on the scale at the doctor's office. The medical assistant would look at me funny. Once I said, "I am already here to get bad news, I don't want to have any more than I have to deal with today, and I don't have to look, and you aren't going to tell me...okay?"
