Never will I EVER weigh 300 or more lbs.

1 year ago I weigh 343 lbs. In 6 months I lost 20 lbs. without even trying. (not sure why). I was told by my doctor that I had type 2 on October 2, 2008. Since than I have lost 26 lbs. and now weigh 297. Hurrah yeah and all those good words.

I never intend to weigh 300 again

Kenny,
Its always good to keep loosing the extra pounds that we have. I lost about 25 lbs after diagnosis. But haven't lost any in the last 6 months. I'm not worried as I feel a lot better and in good control.

Congratulations!

Just remember, permanent baby steps are better than big steps that are not permanent. I'm sure you know it already -- just don't forget! (Sometimes I get into that all or nothing mentality.)

Good for you & your health.

I would hope none of us "intended" to weight over 300 lbs!

Good plan to never get back there. Me too. 331 was my peak. Down to 261 this morning. Hope to keep losing more.

Keep thinking you can, and you will never go back there!

I was just saying the same thing, for me it's 200 lbs. I've been slowly steadily losing for over a year now and I'm very close to 200. I'll get below by years end. Once I get to 195 I intend to never see another 200. Ever.

Unless it's all muscle.

Kenny - CONGRATS! Keep up the good work! I really need to know how you did it! I'd love to lose 15 pounds!

I just noticed you're from LOTO!! I lived in Osage Beach for a while, but moved to Camdenton last year. Perhaps a meet & great is in order? Shoot me PM some time.
