Hello all WLS people of M...

Hello all WLS people of May 2003: Let's see if we can get a total of all the weight we have lost since our surgery in May 2003. I will start: As of July 19: Gene Fisher 137 pounds

As of today I have lost 182 pounds and over 100 inches from my starting weight of 373. I still have 69 pounds to go to my personal goal of 122.

WOW! You are doing great! You went a week after me and I have only lost 106lbs. How are you doing it? Congradulations! Beth

HI Gene. I've lost 125lbs since 5/15/03. SLow going at this point, but still going. As long as I don't gain. I'm happy. Kelly

Hi Gene So far I am down 203 lbs from my starting weight of 367. I current weight 164 lbs. The weight loss has slowed down big time the past couple of months, but I lost 5 lbs this past month so can't complain too much, and I am in serious need of reconstructive surgery!

Sound like everyone is doing just great! Keep up the good work... it is very tough sometimes, but remember tomorrows always a new day... I weighed 406 lbs day of my surgery I now way 230 lbs.... that is 176 pounds... the weight loss is very slow now but at 230 I am extremly happy..... A new MAN.....!

140 gone as of this month. I'm at 204 - would love to be under 200, little by little!!! God bless you all!!!

Hi Gene, I started at 287 and I have lost 94lbs. I have lost more inches then weight it seems like. I would like to lose more, but I'm at a plateau right now. Julie Julie

Hi, I had my surgery May of 2003 and have lost 101lbs, actually lost 107 but put back on 6lbs. I don't need or want to lose anymore but become frantic when I gain a pound! Linda Burdick

Hi Gene, I haven't been on the website for awhile and thought I'd check in on everyone! saw your e-mail and thought I'd join in on the weight loss. Everyone seems to have done soooooooooo good!!! I am very proud of all of you. I have NOT done as good as y'all!! but I did lose 75 lbs. I had my surgery on 5/28/03(weighted in at 287) and as of today 1/06/05 I weigh 212. I know I should have lost more, but I don't know what I'm doing wrong that I seem to have come to a stop on losing any weight. I haven't lost any for about 5-6 months. if anyone has any suggestions PLEASE feel free to let me know, I'll be more than glad to take any advice!! Again , I'm very proud of all of you, we've all come a long way!! God bless us all. candi R.
