Hi Birgit! Thanks for the kind words of my success and accomplishment with the weight loss! I have to lose 60 pounds and so you and I are about at the same level. I tend to want to eat more now that it's been 10 months since surgery (one year coming up on June 25, 2002). I am only losing 5 pounds a month now, and I know it's natural to lose more slowly towards the end, but I hope that you and I can do it perhaps by New Years 2003! Please keep me posted on your accomplishment. On Apr. 25, I'll update my profile and hope to be down a few more pounds. Again, good luck and I wish you much continued success! - Pam from Waterford, CT

Hi, Birgit! Thanks for checking in on me! I'm doing great. I'm at a plateu also. I've lost a total of 108 - but I can't seem to break out of the 245 mark... I've noticed myself picking during the day and not focusing on only 3 meals a day. So I need to cut that out. But I'm great - I'm healthy - I'm happy - I'm looking better - what more could I ever ask for?!!!?! I'm happy to hear that you have come so far in your weight loss - keep it up! I've submitted some pictures to include it on my profile - I haven't seen them posted yet. But hopefully everyone can see an update on my weight loss soon. Keep in touch!

I wish you the best on your journey to weight loss. Continue to keep everyone posted - it's profiles like yours that motivates all of us! Best wishes!

Are you still on for tomorrow? Good luck and make sure you don't do anything silly. I was just up in Great Falls last night having a sleep apnea test so I would't want to have to make a trip up there to hold your hand (but I would if you need it) Wish you all the luck and you will be in my prayers tonight and every night until you are on the mend. I want a blow by blow account of everything so I hope to hear from you soon. I know you will do fine with your sisters there to pamper you. Terry
