Update on my progress

10/4/06 Hello it has been a while since I last posted. I am down from 361 pds to 275 pds and it will be 6 months on the 17th of October 2006. I was hoping to be down 100 pds instead of 85 pds but I am happy still. I am down from a 30/32 size to 18 jeans and shirts which I also love. I work out Monday through Thursday 30 minutes on the elliptical and 15 minutes on the treadmill. I am trying not to weight myself until my 6 month pre-op which is October 26, 2006. I am hoping to be under 270 pds. I am also hoping to be under 200 pds by my year of surgery which is April 17, 2007. Do you think it is possible for me to get to that point. Well until next time. Thanks Sherri

We all lose at different rates so I can't help you with the under 200 within a year but if you work at and try your best- you just never know! Size 18 is wonderful- you must be so excited! My only suggestion would be to not do what I do and skip the gym when life gets in the way! Oh and the protein! Keep up the great work!

You're doing great ! I'm in a size 18 down from a 30/32 too! I'm so happy! Lizzie

Hi Sherri, My doc told me that I should be any where between 80 to 100 pounds at 6 months so you are doing great!! Just stick to your program and it will come off. Darla

Congrats! Don't put pressure on yourself, you'll get to that century mark in no time. Just enjoy the ride.
