7 months today...progress

Hi all.. Today is my official 7 month anniversary. I weighed in at 192.2 this morning. That means a total loss of 143 and for last week...4.6 lbs. Feeling great and more excited about life everyday. I thank God for this blessing of a second chance. It means so much to me. How are you all doing? Jenn

HI, I had my surgery 8 months ago today also. Yeah us!!! I weigh 236 today.....down 125 from my high of 361. I weigh every Wed. but so far 3 pounds gone this week. What a wonderful adventure this is!! Jennifer

Jennifer.. Congrats to you too...I weigh every Monday...yes this is such a wonderful adventure. I am so pleased with the results...even if it has been 8 months...lol...3 lbs this week..you go girl!!!! Jenn

Hi Jenn, Congrats on such a huge loss. You are doing awesome. Honey, you may want to correct your post. It's been 8 months not 7....lol. I mess up all the time. But, you are doing so great. We are proud of you! Erin 310/292/163/151

Erin.. lol 7, 8 who's counting...obviously not me correctly...lol...well eight months has come and gone and it has definitely been worth the time... Jenn

Those 8 months have gone by so fast! Congrats on your awesome progress. This miracle and this chance are definitely a blessing for all of us. I'm down 115 lbs since surgery and down 199 lbs since my all time high when I was weighed in a hospital (at 422 lbs) while I was 11 weeks pregnant (almost 9 years ago). After my son was born, I have no idea how high my weight actually went, but when I joined WW again in 1999 (a year and a half after the baby) I was 414 lbs! I'm helping run a local support group now and I get so excited about this surgery and seeing the hope in all the new people who come in, I burst at the seams wanting to tell everyone how wonderful this can be! I never in a million years thought I would be where I am today. Hugs, Vi

Vi.. Incredible for you too...115 lbs is a lot of five pound bags of sugar to carry around..that is they way it helps me to keep it real...like hey could I have walked five miles with all those five lb bags strapped to my back, legs and shoulders...I don't think so...That is cool about the support group...I wish I had a good one to attend but rite now I am so super busy I don't even think I would have the time. Congrats again on all your losses... Jenn
