Condor Posted June 27, 2010 Share #5 Posted June 27, 2010 You're my hero Gary. Started on a diet two weeks ago. 375 down to 363 this morning. Keep telling myself if you can do it, so can I..... I wonder how much more you'll lose by cutting that 'apron' off. Prayers sent.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poledar Posted June 27, 2010 Share #12 Posted June 27, 2010 First off, congratulations on losing all the weight. Your life is and will be better for that alone. Now as to the tummy tuck et al, good luck there too. Pants get cheaper as they get smaller, which is a great side benefit. You go, my man!!!!!
