good days sometimes I don't.. don't always eat right, but I can't stuff myself like before...

Patrick

Sooooo great to see you again !!!!

many/me watched you as a "little newbie",

starting your long walk towards great health

you have done great

at the beginning 'we" were so happy and excited to watch your journey

eventually, you kindof dropped off the face of the earth (i do know you were other places but....)and wondered how you were

there was even a thread called something like "anyone seen Patrick"???

How special does that show you are

shows how much you are loved!!!! :wub:

hope its ok to say when someone has a larger amount of weight to loose

it can be easier to get upset, discouraged if a slip up is done

I can't even begin to imagine what a hard road you have been walking

don't ever throw in, or even drop the towel

if you do slip on that banana - get up, get up!!!!!

when you are having those harder days (or not) thats when its important to be here for support

many people throw around the word "inspirational"

Patrick you and your story are inspirational!!!

continued success - you are doing great!!!!!

i am looking forward to seeing less and less of you

but........i want to see you more on the board, ok???

i remember, know you give great responses to posts

but come here with any questions, (like how did the chicken cross the road )

OMG

just about 200 lbs down!!!

keep up the great job

you are aces!!!!

congrats

WOW what an amazing accomplishment! Good luck with the rest of your journey

Patrick congratulations on your success. So proud of you!!!

Keep up the great work!!! You mentioned needing Jillian for the head part - maybe its time to find a good therapist to work on the psychology stuff...

You are doing such a great job, CONGRATS to you!! Bad days are bound to happen, but you are on a road to success and your accomplishment so far is nothing short of awe inspiring!

I can already see such a difference, especially in your face. It's an amazing transformation, and all of your hard work is paying off. Can't wait to see the next update!!

PATRICK!!!!!!

Great to see you brother!!!! I've been wondering how you've been. Dude, almost 200lbs lost, that is a huge accomplishment. That's just the first year!!! Do you realize that averages out to .55lb per day, every day? That's almost 4lbs/week FOR A YEAR!!!!

Your path might be longer than some others, but you have come so far already. Believe me, we all have our bad days(I know I have), but you are the MAN!!! You might have the board record for 1year weight loss.

I really do hope to see you around a bit more often. And BTW I'm still looking forward to that roller coaster ride.

FYI. As I'm typing this, I'm driving through Dayton.

I haven't posted in QUITE awhile, sometimes I have good days sometimes I don't.. I don't always eat right, but I can't stuff myself like before...

I'm actually thinking of trying out for the Biggest loser, because I could really use some psycho-analysis from Jillian, and some good fitness coaching....

I've recently broken the 500 pound mark. I started at 670, lost 20 pre-op, and 150 post op. If I can get to 470 (currently 495, that will be 200 since I began the Journey last May- - if I can get to 450 by July 2nd, that will also be 200 since my surgery... those are my two goals for now....

Here's some updated pics, showing my progress.
