Katrina 1 Posted December 12, 2009 OK so I thought I would update this site as well. I had my second to last Kaiser Options class. I have lost a total of 43.4 pounds since starting my classes. And I am hoping to drop about 24 more. LOL But thats my dream of doing before surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
