Last year on my birthday (June 7) I decided I was going to lose the weight. I weighed 278 with a 44 inch waist. I set a goal of 75 pounds in a year. Today I weight 203 and have a 38 inch waist. Whether you choose, Atkins, WW, SB or any other "diet" it needs to be a new Way of Eating. Pick a plan and stick with it, if you fall off, get right back on & you will succeed.

I lost a co-worker in 2003 to gastric bypass, so that should always be a last resort.

Good luck to you all.
