Topic: Hey Feb. Losers...what have you been up to
Well Ladies and gentlemen,
Just thought I would check in to see how everyone is doing. Where are you at with your weight loss at 7 months post-op? My weight loss has been strange....4 weeks of nothing followed by 4 pounds gone overnight. This has been a steady thing for the past two months. I am down 70 pounds and have about 30 more to go. I went from a size 22/24 to a size 12 so I am really happy. I decided that I needed to do something incredible to celebrate being under 200 pounds...something I couldn't do UNLESS I was that weight. So this last weekend I went with my girlfriend and we did something crazy.....we went skydiving. I am now thinking that for every month I lose weight I am going to go again and if I get to goal I will sign up to be certified to go solo. If you are interested in seeing the video here it is

What crazy business have you done to reward yourself?

Topic: RE: HAIR LOSS!!!!!!!
the hair loss has FINALLY STOPPED!
I think mine started around mth 3.5 and was pretty insane for the last 3 mths.
I just realized this morning that my shower walls, shower floor, shampoo, soap, towels, dresser, dog, etc wasnt covered with my hair

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!!
Highest Weight: 290 * Surgery Weight: 273.5 * Current Weight: 176 * Goal Weight: 160

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!
