POLL TIME AGAIN!!!

Hey July-babies!!! Well, it's that time again. We are around 10 months post-op now. How is everyone coming along? 1)- What was your weight pre-op? 2)- What is your goal weight? 3)- How much have you lost already? 4)- How much total weight do you want to lose? (#1 - #2) 5)- What percentage of excess weight have you lost? (#3 / #4) Since we all start at different weights, seeing what PERCENTAGE everyone has lost puts us all on even terms. I think some "slow-losers" will see that they are not slow, they just don't have as much to lose. Here's where I am: 1) 432 2) 175 3) 201 4) 432 - 175 = 257 5) 201 / 257 = 78.2%

Hi everyone, Here is where I am, 1. 360 2. 164 3. 75 4. 360-164=196 5. 75/196= 38.3% Lisa in Mass 360/285/164

1)-311 2)-190 3)-80 4)-121 5)-80/190=66% I think I did this right !! Kind of a slow loser but I'm getting there!

1)- What was your weight pre-op? 305 2)- What is your goal weight? 170 3)- How much have you lost already? 125 4)- How much total weight do you want to lose? 135 5)- What percentage of excess weight have you lost? 92.5% (WOOHOO) Thanks again for doing this Bobby!!! This made my day! Tara

1)- What was your weight pre-op? 250 2)- What is your goal weight? 159 3)- How much have you lost already? 91 lbs 4)- How much total weight do you want to lose? (#1 - #2) 101 5)- What percentage of excess weight have you lost? (#3 / #4) 91%

1. 352 2. 200 (expected 75%)/150 (my personal goal) 3. 97 4. 152/202 5.97/152=63.8%/97/202=48% I don't like seeing those percentages. I prefer to say that I have 55 lbs to my CONTENT goal, and 105 lbs to my HEALTHY BMI goal. Seems less daunting that way, especially considering where I was coming from. Pamela

Thanks for doing this again Bobby. 1)- What was your weight pre-op? 2)- What is your goal weight? 3)- How much have you lost already? 4)- How much total weight do you want to lose? (#1 - #2) 5)- What percentage of excess weight have you lost? (#3 / #4) 1) 248 2) 135 3) 99 (century club here I come!) 4) 113 5) 88%

I'm late in answering, but I want to play along too! Thanks, Bobby, for a great pick-me-up poll. 1)- What was your weight pre-op? 275 2)- What is your goal weight? 142 3)- How much have you lost already? 102 4)- How much total weight do you want to lose? 133 5)- What percentage of excess weight have you lost? 76.6% WooHoo! I'm almost there. If I use my "normal" weight instead of my "ideal" weight, I've lost 84% of my excess weight. However, even if I didn't lose another pound, I'm smaller than I've been in my adult life, and I think I could be content here. Stephany

Well, it took me a few days to respond, but I want to join in! 1)- What was your weight pre-op? 282 2)- What is your goal weight? 150 3)- How much have you lost already? 96 4)- How much total weight do you want to lose? 132 5)- What percentage of excess weight have you lost? 72.7% That makes me feel pretty good~ Ileana Good luck to all of us!
