what is your 6 mth loss?

I haven't lost as much weight as I've noticed others have, but loosing 70lbs in 6 mths is impressive enough for me right now.  I've gone from a size 22 down to a size 14/16 & have more energy then I have in a long long time.  The biggest WOW is my loss in inches:

	02/24/08	08/22/08	Total Loss
neck	15	13	- 2
upper arms (x2)	16 1/2	14	- 5
full chest	52	44	- 8
under chest	43	36 3/4	- 6 1/4
waist	45	38	- 7
hips	55	48	- 7
thighs (x2)	33	28 1/2	- 9
calves (x2)	17 3/4	16 1/2	- 2 1/2
ankles (x2)	9 3/4	9 1/2	- 1/2
Total inches lost			- 47 1/4

How is the rest of my FEBRUARY club doing?

WoW!  It's amazing how you've charted your inches lost.  Wish I had done that.  I have lost about 83 lbs in six months.  I have about two lbs that fluctuate depending on the time of the day.  I tend to lose for about 2-3 weeks, then stall for 2-3 weeks.  I also went from a size 22W down to a regular size 16, which is now beginning to get lose.  I have ZERO winter clothes for the fall/winter and don't know which size I will be wearing to stock up.

I am happy with the amount I have lost so far, but wi**** hadn't slowed down so much.  My surgeon said I am losing at the rate I should be for six months out so I reckon I shouldn't be worried.

I am down 82.5lbs in 6 months. The weight loss is slowing a bit, but that is ok since I only have a little over 50lbs to go. I am still losing between 7-9lbs a month.

I have lost 102 lbs in six months. So many inches that is the most amazing part.  love my RNY.  like the Feb club because I had surgery the last day of Jan.

I am down about 70 pounds.  I started at 5'6" and 254(was 260 at the height pre-surgery).  I am now somewhere around 186.  I went from a size 22/24 to a size 12/14.  I have about 30 more pounds to go but honestly I would be happy with the results even if I never lose another pound.  I feel so great about how I look and I finally have learned to accept compliments from others.  I do, however, sometimes put on my pants and wonder if, in 5 years, I will still be able to fit in them.  It just almost seems too good to be true.....like so many of the other things I have tried that worked temporarily.  Either way I am loving life.....Is it now time to switch over to the plastic surgery board to perseverate on the parts that now sag :)

I've lost 100lbs and am shocked that it came off sooo quickly.  This last weekend was the first time that I went shoping with a girlfriend and felt comfortable shopping in ALL of the stores.  It was sooo fun!  It you aren't there yet you will be!

I'm new to posting here but thought I'd join in.  I started at 273.5 on the day of surgery (2/25) and am down to 181 (-92.5).  I'm so happy and have so much more energy than 6 months ago.  What a great feeling!! 

My Surgery date was Feb 29th.  FIgured that way I would never forget it.  My 6 month loss was was 100lbs from my Surgery date.   155 from Jan 1st.  

Start Jan 1, 350, Surgery feb 29th 296.  Six month check up Sept 5th 196. 

Keep up the good work, and good luck

I noticed all of you are RNY except one VSG, I had the lap band and is down 70 lbs!

I think it's great we have every type of surgery in this post...I just wish my numbers were so much higher (SIGH)
