Next Goal?
OK, so we're part way there, we've already met some goals. What's your next goal you are aiming for?
For me, I want to get into the 14stones (I'm 15stone 5lbs at the moment), which in US terms means I've got to loose 6lbs. Then my next goal is to get into onederland. I'm 215 at the moment so I've got 16lbs to go for that one. The way I'm loosing (or not) at the moment it may be a while til I get there

Hi Ruth,
Keep your chin up girl!!!You will see onederland in no time!!I will be waiting to Congratulate you.Its so hard when it feels like it is going slow or you are on a stall but remember its your body playing catch up & slow is better for the skin.
My next goal is to make it to 150lbs by Nov 9th. That is my 6 month appointment with my surgeon. I am at 159 now & would so like to be to 150, that is "only" 9lbs & I have about 3 weeks. I know I can do it!!It is so cool knowing that with this tool it is possible.I was a lightweight to start with 228 lost 10lbs before surgery so surgery day was 218lbs. I have been losing between 9-11 lbs a month. 2lbs here 2lbs there seems so slow but when you look at it I have never been able to lose that much in a month & keep it off!!!That is what is important!!!

I want to see onderland by Christmas. The losses are getting slower and slower. But if I can manage three pounds a week I should make it. That would put me down 142 pounds at Christmas and that would just be awesome. I have got 33 pounds to go. I have got 9 weeks before I go home to see my family. So, I guess that's a little more than 3 pounds a week. I might want to exercise more I just want it SO badly!

I am glad I found this forum. I have not been good at posting, but Now that I am stalled a little, I need the support it provides. Of course I hit the 6 months post op in late November. I started at 272 and I am 208. Boy would I like to see the scale read anything under 200 by that time. I have spent 2 weeks at 207-208 and I am a bit frustrated. The only other stall I had was in the first 3 weeks after surgery. Everyone says by body will just have to catch up and then I will drop again. So I have hope.
So my Goal is 10 pounds by Thanksgiving - to put me at 198.
I would like to be 100lbs lighter by December 18th. I am 30lbs (last time I weighed) from that goal. And hopefully I wll be able to reach my goal by December. I weigh tomorrow . . . . so hopefully I am closer to my goal already.
Oh December 18th is also my last day of classes and I will be returning to the workforce!!!!!
