Thank you to all those who have posted so far. I have not had the surgery, but my dr. has suggested it may be the way to go for me.

I cannot write the first words that came out of my mouth when I saw your before and after pics, but a toned down version would be: holy freakin' cow! You look AMAZING!

Thank you SO much for sharing your story. I just got below 300 lbs (298) when I got weighed yesterday and of course this makes me very happy (At my heaviest I weighed 345 lbs) but to get to this point it has taken me a couple of years. I would lose the weight and then gain some weight back (you all know what I mean) It…

Hi! As of last Tuesday, when I got weighed, (going to WW) I was 307 lbs. My highest ever was about 345 lbs. I have been playing the "lose it - gain it back" game for months now and I am getting rather tired of it. I joined WW because I did have success in the past following their plan ( I lost 80 lbs - 2X) . Of course I…

My grandparents were neighbours with his parents. I knew him since I was a kid. When I was a teenager I had a crush on him and would always try and hang around when I saw him outside. haha. Finally we started dating and got married when I was 21! A lot of people did not think it would last - why? What I didn't tell you was…

Joanna, My Dr. has told me the same thing about getting a knee replacement. I'm 45 now and he says they only last for about 10 yrs., so he thinks I'd be better off to wait if I can. When I tell people this, they do not always agree. They tell me I'd be better off getting it now whle I'm young, but they are not doctors…

Good morning ladies! I just thought I'd jump on here quickly before my little munchkin gets here 'cause once Sam is here I am "on call" or he wants to go on the computer to play his games. He's 6 yrs old and I think, no I know, he knows more about the computer than me! I haven't really thought about my Friday Food yet. I…
