How Much Have you Lost? Let's have some fun

Hey everyone, the folks on the July site, have started doing something that we might want to do as well. It really helps to let us all know how "normal" we all are. Since we only have one day left of the month, all of us would have done our surgerys by now. How about we pick a day to report our progress. Something like this: Start: 355 Pre Op: 335 (pre-op dieting) Surgery date of 8.17.07 Current: 320 Post op loss in 2 weeks: 15lbs Total loss: 35 lbs What do you think? Should we do something like this?

Start 223 pre-op 212 (after pre-op dieting) Surgery date 8-14-07 Today's weight 195 lbs (and holding)

Start: 300 Pre-Op: 272 Surgery Date: 8/6/07 Current: 254 Post op loss in 3 weeks: 18 lbs Total loss: 46 lbs

Ok here goes start 318 surgery date 8-22-07 Current 304 loss for 10 days 14lbs Pamela

Surgery Date August 22 and August 24 Start 269 Pre-Op 261 Post-Op 273 Today 253

Here's mine: Surgery Date: 8/1/07 Initial weight: 327 Pre-surgery weight: 319 Post-op weight: 294 (2 weeks) Present weight: About 286 (1 month) -- my scale is awful Total Weight Loss: About 40 pounds

Hi Everyone! Start: 254 Pre-op 221 Surgery date of 08-02-07 Now weighing in at: 204 Total loss: 50 lbs Post-op loss: 17 lbs WAY TO GOOOO EVERYONE!! God bless!

Thank you everyone. Looks like we are all on the same track for the most part. I'll try and post this each Monday for us so we can be encouraged by each other. I know we all want it to fall off overnight, but keep in mind, this isn't an race to end in 30 days. None of us has probably lost 15 - 20 olbs in two weeks before. So trust me, we are all doing well. (maybe we are a little impatient cuz we want more!) Here's to us all being successful!!!

Begining Weight:235 Post Op: 204 Present Weight:186 Total Lost:44 lbs Lost since Surgery:18 lbs. Surgery on August 13th

Great idea Tammy! Thanks for starting this! Here's mine: Start 250 pre-op 226 (after pre-op dieting and bowel prep) Surgery date 8-14-07 Today's weight 220 lbs **NOTE** I gained 15 pounds of water weight in the hospital and it took me almost 2 weeks to lose that. Wondering how much, if any others gained that much water weight in the hospital?
