surgery8-20-2003 DOWN 96LBS
I AM DOWN 96LBS IN 5 MONTHS AND WAS JUST LOOKING TO SEE IF THAT WAS AN AVERAGE (GOOD ONE) FOR 5 MONTHS POST OP. IT IS SO AMAZING HOW MUCH BETTER I FEEL ABOUT MYSELF. SEEMS THOUGH THAT THE WEIGHT IS SLOWWING DOWN SOME BUT IT IS OK. IF I DON'T LOSE ANOTHER POUND IT WAS STILL WORTH IT A 100 TIMES OVER. I HAVE GONE FROM A SIZE 32/34W TO A SIZE 22W AND IT FEELS SO GOOD TO BE ABLE TO FIND CLOTHES TO FIT IN NORMAL STORES AGAIN!
Hi Margaret,
Im also 5months post op, and about 100 down. My doc said that was great, keep it up. I stay clear away from carbs and sugars. I too have slowed down a bit, and am in a size 22/20 from 32/34w. I feel better to hear from someone else about the same as me. I cant really see it. But everyone else does, and its nice to hear poeple say so to me! And OMGosh, to go to Wal-Mart and buy clothes is so wonderful. Not only does it feel good, but The prices are more for my pocket book, and I dont have to buy streachies or sweats if i dont want to.
Keep up the good work!
WOW! That seems like alot of weight. I had surgery on 8/13 and have lost 88lbs. I think the amount you lose depends on how much you initially weighed. I weighed 311 and wore 26/28. I now weigh 223 and wear 18s. I'm like you. . .I feel so much better that if I don't lose another pound, it's been worth every dime!
COngrats!
