Nate 292 Posted August 21, 2012 So it all started for me last August. Had my first consult with the Surgeon and weighed 546 I'm ashamed to admit. Thanks to my Insurance Company I had to go through 9 months of NUT and Management visits etc. Doc said he wanted me to try and loose as much weight before surgery as possible because every pound dropped would help since I was already very high risk being so big. So the dieting bagan. The morning of my surgery I weighed 505lbs. This morning I decided to stop by Doc's office and weigh in. I'm happy to report I'm down to 442lbs. That's 63lbs since surgery and over 100lbs combined since I started the whole journey! I still have a way to go before my eventual goal of 250lbs. But I'm extremely proud of myself right now. I could have never thought I would have come this far. 4 lyndynojo, caroless, ProudGrammy and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
