Congratulations ! To EVERYONE ! Stay with the plan and the weight will come off ! I even went on vacation for 3 weeks, drank a bunch of rum and lost 10 lbs ! but then I was very active also and did watch my food quality and quantity ... but I told the Doc it HAD to be the RUM ! :cursing:

Thanks, everyone! Hard to believe that a year ago I was doing that nasty preop liquid diet, wondering if I was doing the right thing, scared to death, etc., etc. And now I can tell you, it was the best decision I've ever made -- and you too can do this! Keep your chin up, and if you slip up, just get up and keep going! :frown::thumbup::smile:

Guess what I'm doing -- sitting and drinking a liquid Protein shake on that "nasty pre-op liquid diet" and wondering if I'm doing the right thing and scared to death. I seem to be in just exactly the place now that you were in last year. (My pre-op diet is until my surgery on the 29th of this month -- seems like forever right now.) It was SOOO encouraging to read your post. Maybe next year I'll be in your place again and a much happier, thinner camper. Thanks for posting and letting us know it does work even for us "bigger" banders.

I joined the 100 pound club today! looking forward to the next 42! I have the feeling it is going to be more hard work, but sooooooo worth it!

Congratulations, everyone! Now that it has been a year and a half since I lost 100 lbs., I must say, maintenance is pretty hard. But if we accomplished this much, we can accomplish anything! Keep up the great work, everyone!

Congrats SpideyMom! You are an inspiration to everyone here. I just recently hit -100lbs myself and am now at -104. I feel like I have my life back. Everything is so much easier. Lots of hard work and sacrifice but just like you said, I would "do it again."

Cheers
