GOAL

How close are you to your weight goal....

i am only 15lbs from my goal

WOW! Nice work.

I am 59 lbs from mine... with a total loss of 139 so far 59 sounds so little considering how much I've already lost but it sure is taking its sweet time coming off now....LOL Becky

I dance around this subject most of the time, but here it goes Crystal... I am 73 lbs. from my goal weight. I "officially" put it on my profile that I wanted to weigh 127 lbs soaking wet. I have achieved my New Years goal weight, well almost, but once I work out today and tom. and drink my all water, I am sure by Tuesday I will be there. Belinda

im about 25 from my original goal of 170........... but I have a new goal weight of 165...............because 165 will put my BMI in a healthy range..........

AAARRRGGGGHHHH! You guys make me sooo jealous! I always promise myself that I won't compare my loss to others. But I can't help it. I am the Oldest post op out here and I am the slowest loser EVER! Dangit.

Belinda: no you aren't! I am! lol seriously though, we have some super losers on this June board and I am proud of them, happy for them and jealous of them, all rolled into one! Lots of them lost on the preop diet. Me, my preop diet was about 7 months before surgery, I managed to pack back on the pounds I lost so my surgery weight was my starting weight. I've lost 74 lbs today and don't have an official goal but 70ish more pounds would be a dream come true! Someone else posted that 50% of excess weight lost at 6 months is a good place to be at. Even if you aren't, if you are building muscle you will get there at the end. There are a few of us that aren't weight loss superstars and are a bit older than these hot young women but we will all get there in the end! hang in there, judi

16 pounds to initial goal. Dr didn't give me a goal weight - said to reach a weight where I feel good first. So I may reassess after reaching my initial goal which gives me a BMI of NORMAL.

I'm 30 lbs from what I think my goal is. My dr hasn't given me one, but 135 will make me 10 lbs less than when I joined the Navy. I think I have more of a clothing size goal. I really want to be no bigger than an 8/10. I've never been a 10 or below, so that would bring some real pride. I'm in a 14 now, so it may be possible!!
