Hello my fellow losers! How are you all doing? I am feeling AWESOME! I had my 6-week post-op check-up this morning. To date, I have lost 62 pounds, which is approx. 38% of my excess body weight putting me at 281lbs. My BMI has gone from 44% to 36%! I am able to eat pretty much anything but starches and sugar now. I feel better than I have in a very long time! I have gone from a size 30 to a size 22! I am wearing clothes that have been hanging in my closet for 3 years now! It's like I have a whole new wardrobe! I can't wait to say goodbye to the twenty-something sizes for good!

62 pounds since surgery????   Wow that's great. My surgery was on Feb 4th and I have lost about 35 pounds. Looking forward to losing much more!!

Well thats total weight-loss, including pre-op diet which was about a loss of 12-15 pounds! Thanks and good luck!

Thank you!! im tryin not to get caught up in the numbers but its hard.. when  for the first time in my life its finally going down..  but if u weigh ur self a few times a week it will screw with ur mood an self esteem.. i gained 5lbs an then 2 days later lost 8lbs... im tryin to only weigh myself once a week... but its like a new addiction.. i want to see the numbers moving.. down perferably..
