Who started around 255-260 pounds?

Where are you now? How much have you lost? How tall are you? How much do you eat at a time? Do you exercise? How much water? Etc, etc, etc. . . Please share! RNY 03/01/04 (285)258/170/130

Carla I started out heavier than you but you look like you are doing great. LaRhonda -75

Thats about what I am at now that I am 103 lbs out... I see that 170 and I am green with envy! (just kidding - congrats - I cant wait to see the onederfulls!) -Sherrie

I WEIGHED 254.5LBS ON THE DAY OF SURGERY (03/31/04) I AM NOW AT 177LBS. I AM ONE OF THE ?LUCKY? ONES THAT CAN EAT EVERYTHING AND NOT GET SICK. THIS DOES TEND TO MAKE ME MORE CAREFUL THOUGH BECAUSE I AM AFRAID THAT I WILL REVERT TO BAD HABITS SINCE VERY FEW THINGS MAKE ME SICK. I HAVE NEVER THROWN UP AND WOULD LIKE TO KEEP IT THAT WAY BUT I FEEL THAT IF MORE THINGS MADE ME SICK I WOULD BE LESS LIKELY TO EAT THE FOODS THAT I'M NOT SUPPOSED TO HAVE. HOWEVER, I ONLY EAT ABOUT 5-6OZ OF FOOD AT A TIME AND THAT GENERALLY TAKES ME AN HOUR TO FINISH. I HAVE HIT MY FIRST PLATEU IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS AND AM STARTING TO SERIOUSLY FREAK OUT, YOUR WEIGHT LOSS IS GREAT, DID YOU HIT A PLATEU AT ANY POINT? LAURIE

No plateaus or hair loss yet but I know my day is coming! LOL

I started at 249 lost 77lbs as of 7/20 I am 5'2" I can eat up to 2oz of chicken at a time.......not much more or I will get sick I walk some but thats all I drink 64oz a day but if I add my protien and coffee its more I now weigh as of 7/20 172 Hoping that when I weigh in I will at least lose 8-10lbs I have been losing 10lbs a month....... Donna

Carla, I started out at 264, I am 5'4" and after several plateaus I am down to 190lb so I have lost 73lb. Not the fastest loser, but then again this is not a race. I do have to say that I occasionally get sad that I am not up there with the rest of you but time will tell. Leslie

I AM 5'8", I STARTED OUT AS 267 AND AM NOW 200, AM 6 MONTHS OUT I GET DISCOURAGED LOOKING AT THE MASSIVE WEIGHT LOSSES, BUT I MUST REMEMBER I DIDNT HAVE THAT MUCH WEIGHT TO LOSE IN THE FIRST PLACE. I LOVE THE WAY THE CLOTHES ARE FITTING AND THE WAY I LOOK AND FEEL! ANDREA
