How much have you lost so far??

Oct/28/04 was my re-birthday.started at 345 and today im 296.totaling 49lb's gone 4 good !!I just cant seem to get to 50lb's

October 26th was my rebirth. I went in weighing 283.5 and as of Tuesday the 28th of Dec, I weighed 233.5 exactly a 50 pound loss!!

Wow, your all doing so good. I started at 167# and was 258.5 the day of surgery. My weight loss is soooo slow, at my 6 week check up I had lost 27# I lost 19.5 in the first 2 weeks so in the next 4 weeks I only lost 8#. This past month I've gone down another 7#. I follow the Dr.s plan so I don't understand why I'm not losing faster. I have to admit I'm getting depressed. Barbara

That still is about 2 pounds per week. That 2 pounds or so a week will add up over the next months! I know what you mean, I haven't weighed this week, but at 10 weeks, had lost 57, 10 of it before surgery. Have noticed that there is a pattern (so far) that 1 week out of the month is 1 to 1.5 pounds, then the other 3 have been 3 to 6.5 pounds. Hope that keeps up for awhile. There still is a lingering feeling this won't work for me. However, the weight WILL come off with the little amount of food I'm taking in. It will for you too.

Lap RNY was on 10/27/04 and have gone from 321 pounds to 274 for a total of 48 pounds. I have only lost 2 pounds these last 3 weeks! Getting very frustrated!!! But I guess in the bigger picture, 48 pounds is pretty good or so I am telling myself.

I have officially lost 50 lbs now. I am so excited. I can't believe how much better I feel. Congrats and good luck to everyone! Patty

Hi All I had surgery 10.12.04 weighing in at 278. As of 12.26.04 I had lost a total of 51lbs, down to 227, I have not weighed since that day. I'm getting my fluids in everyday, and most day I get all my protein. I just need to workout more. That is my main goal for Jan. is to start back in Tae Kwon Do 2 times a week to start. I was a high green belt before I just got to big to workout like that. I think you guys have all done a great job losing weight!!! Please dont get caught up on what everyone else has lost and you have not because we are all different and we will not all be able to lose the same way. Good Luck to all in the New Year!! Sherrie

Hello Everyone, Sure hope everybody had a wonderful Christmas and New Year's Eve... My Christmas was great... but was very sick New Year's Eve.. so I spent the night in bed.. Sucked... But, on the better side... I am 10 weeks out and have now lost 68 lbs... I weighed this morning and I now weigh 258 lbs... WOOOO HOOOO i havent been that size in a long time... Im losing the weight but still have only dropped one size... which is ok... I will eventually drop the sizes as well... Strange how that works... some of us are losing the sizes while others of us are losing the weight... Bizarre... dont think I will ever understand it.. But, we are all doing great... Glad to hear that everyone is doing so great in their journey... Keep up the good work and we will all be to goal in no time... Leslie 326/258/170

Surgery date 10-12-04. As of this morning I'm down 63 pounds!!! I started at 294 and now at 231. I can't believe I'm going to see the 220's soon. I haven't been under 230 in forever. 230 was the best I ever did on a diet in the last 10 years! So I'm probably gonna cry when I get below that. Happy tears!! I can't even imagine what it will feel like to go out of the 200's and into the 100's. I can't' imagine it but I'm at least hopeful of the possibility now. Wishing everyone the best! Karla

surgery 10/26/04 have lost 52llbs as of this morning. It does'nt seem fast enough, but in reality I could never have averaged a 5.2llb a week loss without this surgery congrats to everyone on every pound lost
