How far along are you??

Surgery Date 5/19 280lbs on 5/19 227lb on 9/13 Total loss 53...my goal is 150 so I have 77 more pounds to go! I'm glad I read this! I was starting to get a little down and was thinking that I was loosing way too slow.... but it's good to see that we are all different

Hey Donna, sorry it took so long for me to reply, but hurricane Frances took my electricity for a week. I am about where you are. I am down 65 pounds and that is 42% of my goal. That is a great question. I see people who lost alot more than me, but we are on the same scale if we use percentages. Christine -65

well.... surgery 5/20/04 pre-op weight 255 goal weight 155 pounds lost so far 48 so that puts me at 48%.... so much for the Lapband being slower than RNY....we all seem to be on the same pace.

I am at about 73% done. I had exactly 100 to lose so figuring percentages was easy for me.

My surgery date was may 19th starting weight - 275lbs. current weight - 210lbs. goal weight - 135lbs. so - my percentage is 46% - glad to read this..thought I was going slow.

We all lose at different rates. I was considered a "lightweight" @ 212 lbs. So I have less to lose. RNY/Lap Small frame (5-1/2 inch wrist) 5' 3" Pre-op: 212 lbs Current: 140 lbs Goal: 125-130 lbs Age: 53 I could stand to go lower with my goal, but it would not be good at my age. You are doing fine, and it may start coming off even faster at times, and slower at others don't become discouraged, chin up! Hettie Something is wrong with my picture...sorry
