New Month how about an update ?

I know it has been a while since I have updated ( still about the same ) but how is everybody else doing ? Always been a slow loser....But it has been over 22 years since I have been this weight... Surgery Date - Sept. 28,2005 Height - 5'7 Starting weight - 321 Weight now - 231 How about you ??? Sandy

I have only lost a lb since 7/14, but I still am happy with my loss, I just pray I can get to 185 lbs.... Started : 358 lbs Now: 224 lbs Goal: 185 lbs Height: 5'6" Total loss 134 lbs....... It's been about 13 years since I was this weight. Everybody seems to notice my small waist, but I think it's becasue my breasts (38F), and hips(49.5 in),not to mention my thighs(28 r,27 L), are so HUGE!!! Good news is I am down to a 20 pants, and 12 to 16 shirt depending on the arms...LOL!! Tanya L

Slow slow slow!! Surgery date 9/16/05 Height 5'7" Starting weight - 289 Current weight 165 i don't know what to set for a goal. The charts say 147 for normal BMI, but that seems a little thin for me at my age. I don't know, I guess I'll know it when I see it.

Hey Donna, I wish I remembered where I read it the other day, but it did adjust the BMI numbers for age. I remember it well, because it started at 35 and I'm not far off from that! And it gives you an extra 10 - 15 lbs. At 5'6" I think I could weigh up to 160-165 lbs... So, that probably means that you're there right now, since you're a little taller!
