I had surgery on Sept 6, 2005. I started the process weighing 336 # on surgery date I weighed 310 today I weigh 185-190 (depending on the time of day). I guess I want to know how everyone else is doing with there weightloss, basically I don't know if this is good or not, I mean I have lost alot but should I have lost more? I am not complaining but just owrried. thanks Jennifer

Hi Jennifer, I had my surgery on September 8, 2005. I started out at 328 pounds, and I now am at 182. I am on a little stall right now, but I am hoping the scale will move again soon. I think we are pretty close in our numbers. I think that a 146 pound loss in 9-9 1/2 months is pretty great. Did you measure inches? I have lost 119.8 inches too. I think we are doing great...just my opinion Have a great day Tracy

You're doing GREAT I had surgery 9/14/06 started at 358 now 234 total lost 124..oh and 102 inches! Tanya L

Jennifer, Seems like you've lost a LOT of weight in only 9 months and are ahead of the schedule. You should be proud of yourself! I weighed 330+ (my scale only went up to 330) and on surgery day (9/28) I weighed 311. I now am at 220. I feel great and look great (If I should say so myself!) I'm 5'8". So, welcome here to the board, and congrats on your success! paula
