I was 333 pounds. I have been FAT all my life. Started weight watchers the FIRST time at 8 years old. I always did well then would loose my way somehow. I had the vertical gastric sleeve and have never looked back. It is a tool to help you loose weight. It is NOT a magic kind of thing. I have to eat right, paying attention…

Congratulations!! Thats an awesome accomplishment!! I did however choose surgery. March 5, 2012 I had VSG. Vertical sleeve gastrectomy. I have to date lost 121 pounds. I am glad I made the decision for surgery and I have been lucky to have NO complications. : ) I feel better than I have since I cannot remember when!!

one and get the party started!

Shoulders... big hands... being wrapped up in strong arms... big hands... being "handled" with said big hands...

Congratulations! How wonderful!! What an accomplishment!! At my last Dr's Appointment I was down like 96 lbs. On his wall was a BMI scale. I was bummed to see I STILL FELL INTO morbidly obese range. But being as I started at SUPER morbidly obese I guess I should have been ... happy? I don't know?? My goal is to weigh about…

I sat for about 10 minutes on the couch... with my legs crossed!

Tears of happiness for you! Congratulations and best wishes. Luck... that has NOTHING to do with it! I've lost 101 pounds. I had surgery to help me get there.

I was sleeved March 5, 2013. And yes, everyone is different and will have different experiences. Some tolerate pain better than others. ... heres my 2 cents. I lost 30 some pounds before surgery (required by my insurance). To date I have lost 96 lbs. I feel fantastic. I have another 90 or so to go! Belly was sore after…

Fantastic job! I've lost over 90 lbs too! I still have about another 90 or so to go.. but what a difference it has made!!

Love the show! I have cried laughing on most episodes! I can make my 9 year old laugh so hard just by yelling...."Quit poopin all over everything!" (goat pen episode) Have a mean crush on Jase!! Just think there is something sexy about him and not even sure what it is really? The premier for this season made me cry like a…

I had the sleeve in March of this year. I also have been fat all my life.... I have no regrets so far and am very pleased with the results. It's a personal choice you'll need to decide for yourself. The surgery is NOT a fix all... you still need to follow food and exercise program. The surgery is a tool! It helps you to…

wow... how absolutely inspiring! Never give up! And when I feel like giving up I'm gonna try and remember this story... so thank you!

Hello! My name is Chris. 43 yrs old. SW: 333 CW: 262 GW: 150 ...for now! I have been FAT all my life. The last time I remember being in the 150's was in 8th grade!

I've always been told I look young for my age. I've always countered with... "it's because I'm fat...it pushes any wrinkles out". I'm 43 and recently lost 60 lbs. Someone just yesterday said..."wow, I can see how much weight you've lost...especially in your face!" "You have laugh lines and wrinkles". Seriously? Great.…

hahaha! I lost one if you want it? :)

Good God in heaven.... I have lost an elephants penis??? Who knew? lol ( I know my ticker says 50 lbs lost, but that was the weight I was when I started MFP.. I had actually lost 10 before) :)
