For 7 years.
saw Dr last week, For 6 month checkup, im at 192.
I lived through the big weight loss. I stood on a scale multiple times about day.
Don't do that! I could show ya, how to change, your feet position, and gain, or lose a pound.
And what I'll tell ya, if you constantly step on a scale daily, no, I went from 450 to 192, yes, I had surgery, but the one thing I was taught.

Take your weight , no more than, once a week. Same scale, same time, and, then, look at your weight.
