dstollery 290 Posted September 15, 2012 Well I had surgery 7/24. With a preop weight of 305. Today I am 245 lbs. down from a 48 waist to a 40, a 4x shirt to An XL and best of all . . . I just accepted a position as a flight medic. Might not seem like a big deal but helicopters have weight limits for flight medics and I now am under the weight. This has been my dream since i started in ems 8 years ago. I start October 8th and I couldn't have done it without RNY and all Of you. Thank you all for your support and for everything. Keep on losing people! Shoot for your dreams and remember you can do it, you have the tools!
