I am 4 months and 1 day post op and had a wow moment this morning when I stepped on the scale. The scale told me this morning that I am down to 299 pounds. I know that still seems like alot, but it is 109 pounds lost since surgery and 127 pounds lost since I first met the surgeon on May 5. This is the first time that I've been below 300 in probably 25 years or more. This has been an awesome and positive experience. I'm so pleased!!! Scott

Scott, Please add your total to our room total for the month. We have a running post for Nov -4th month anniversery. Where we are adding our totals up again like we did last month to see how much wt we have all lost. Congrats on getting below 300. I just did that myself a few weeks back and its amazing. I feel better than I have in 10 yrs. I wish I had had this surgery yrs ago. Ive lost 34 inches in just my waist, hips and chest. My wt now is down to 283 on my old scale that I started using at the time of surgery and my new scale is reading 294.. So either way Im below 300 and so happy I am. Im down 111 lbs since surgery.
