Roll Call....What is your weight after 5 months?

Deb, Okay here goes for my 5 month check in: Starting weight: 271 Current weight: 197.5 Total Loss: 73.5 I haven't taken my measurements yet but I will tonight. I am so glad a friend told me to do this because when the weight hasn't moved much the inches still have. Take care, Becky P.

Last Tuesday was 5 months for me and I have lost 79 pounds. I think it's great but I just had a wonderful experience that was even better. I went to a spa in North Carolina so I was flying for the first time since the surgery. Guess what? The seat belt fit without an extender and I wasn't oozing out of the seat. When I got to the spa and everyone got a robe to wear I got one too and it fit. I'm really loving this!!!!! I did not take measurements but I did take possibly one of the most unflattering pictures of myself pre-op and I started a photo journey. The album starts with that picture, has front/side/rear shots of me three days pre-op and then at each one month anniversary after that. For me looking at the album as I add each month's photos has been great reinforcement. I think this is one of the best things I've ever done for myself. I say go girls!!!

Howdy y'all, Was 5 months yesterday - down 55 pounds. Halfway there. Bought a size 12 pants in the 'regular' section. First size 12 since grade school! WOOHOO!!! Congrats to all.

HI, Everyone!! I am not losing as fast as most of you. I was 5 months on yesterday and I am down only 40 lbs. I have not lost anything in 3 weeks. I actually gained 2 lbs. But let me not start complaining. I have never lost this much weight before. SO I want to lose 40-50 lbs more. Kimmie C. 238/198/150
