Weight Loss Since Surgery?
Sounds like all of us June babies are doing great weight loss-wise.
My highest was 239 in February.
I was 223 when I started my 10-day liquids prior to surgery.
I weighed 212 when I checked in to the hospital.
Today I weigh 155.
That's an 84 pound loss since February; 68 pounds since the pre-op diet and 57 pounds since surgery. 30 pounds to goal.
Hi Michelle. I think you are doing great. I agree with everyone who says we all lose at different rates. My weight loss was quite quick (compared to others) early on in the game. Things have slowed and I am probably on par with others who were close to my BMI (51). I was 291 at surgery and I am at 182 now, for a total loss of 109. Having said that, I am struggling to unload a slew of bad habits that will be my downfall if I don't get a handle on them soon.

why can't i be doing as good with my loss as you guys are. i am so disgusted with my results thus far- surgery was june 7th and i still weigh 222, so hows that for slow. you guys are doing awesome, just remember me and my abnormal loss whe you start complaing about only losing 60 or 80 lbs since june. continued success to all you beautiful people.
Hello!! Glad to see we're all doing great!! I started at 269 (day of wls) and am currently 185. Total loss of 84 lbs. But, I don't eat as much as I should. I probaley only consume 600 calories a day maybe 700. I don't exercise as much as I should. I'm going to start tho!!! I havent budged on the scale untill this past week for over a month. I was stuck at 190 it seemed like forever. I finally bought a dress for Dr. Jawad's Holiday Party. A size 14 !!! I was so estatic. I can wear some 12's too ! I also went and bought some 15/16 arizona jeans two weeks ago and they're already falling off of me!! Oh and to have a colar bone that you can actually see and feel.. words cant even describe it !!
