I'll be brief
Like so many others, I lost weight in the past..but I lost 255 lbs in 11 months!!
Yep, lost it through working out and eating properly....got married, experienced the birth of my first daughter and enjoyed life.
Then..problems with my marriage, a subsequent divorce and the exodus of my daughter Avery from my every day life (I didn't handle it well)
I put on about 10 lbs a month for two years, a little over two years actually. I tried to follow the same path that had been successful before, it didn't work. Well, I didn't work... I didn't have it in me again, different person with different mind frame
Anyway..off to mexico I went. Weighed in at my heaviest of 509 lbs...Banded in Mexico, Hospital De Angeles (who did great, I went ALONE) to save $ on extra plane tix (Yikes...no problem)
To bring you up to speed, things started good...lost about 45 lbs in the first 3 months, 90 lbs down after about 7 months...At one year I had taken off around 160-165 lbs18 months I'm sitting at around 175-185 lbs lost
Now at 19 months, and a GREAT month in Jan/Feb 2010 I'm down the 200 lbs I wanted to reach first.
310 lbs and heading into 2010 looking to seal the deal by next Christmas...
Sealing the deal would be any weight Under 220 lbs
Wish me luck.....
