few pounds but what has come off is purely fat.. no****er weight.
So gone forever fat is 15 lbs... yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congratulations everyone on your wonderful accomplishments! Isn't this just amazing? Yesterday I had to buy some new jeans because my old baggy ones were looking awful. At Avenue I got size 20 and they fit perfectly! I was in a 24-26 pant before surgery. Also bought a size 22 top, down from 26-28! And I am amazed by how much easier I'm getting around. I have a consistent level of energy all day and am able to stay up later and sleep less without feeling exhausted. Yesterday I ran errands and shopped at Home Depot for over an hour without having to find somewhere to sit to rest my poor feet. I felt like a normal person shopping! Woo hoo!
Highest weight: 293
Day of surgery (4/4): 287

Congrats to everyone. How exciting that we are finally losing that excess weight! Here are my stats:
Highest weight- 282
Pre-surgery-275
Current- 257
I have lost 25 lbs, yeahhhhhh!
I am having trouble with clothes right now because a couple of my incisions are right on the waistband. So, pajama bottoms only so far!
Ok my turn....
Surgery 4/20/07
Weight day of surgery- 298
Weight today 268
30 gone in 18 days! I didn't believe it because my stomach was so full of gas and it was poking out like I was pregnant and nothing started feeling loose- enter Gas X- once I started taking that, the gas was gone and my clothes are falling off! I've been on a platue for about a week -my guess is because the 30 pounds came off so fast so its slowing down a little to keep my body from going into shock from losing the fat suit.
My biggest hurdle is protein- I have no way to get it here and I can't seem to find a good website that sells it- and will send it to APO address. If anyone knows of any let me know!
