Just checking regarding my weightlost so far

Hi I had surgery Oct 17, 05. Before surgery I was 363 I did the liquid diet etc.... my surgeron says I was 356 day of surgery (he never weighed me not sure) so anyways.... I now weigh 284.... is this good? Just feel a little nervous like everyone else is losing more. I know don't compare but I have too..... Where is everyone else???? Thank you, Kris

79 lb Oh My god! you should be over the moon. Or at least doing the happy dance most of our group are in the 50-70 lb lost, some as low as 40. There are only a few of us super heavy weights that have done better. Believe me 79 lb gone is GREAT!!!!! Congrats on your loss. Deb 392/297/225

Deb, I am 67 pounds down and was afraid that I was losing real slow. Thanks for posting the weight loss range. It seems to me that I've seen a lot of people in the 80-100 pound loss range. I was feeling bad but now I feel better. I guess I'm doing okay. Actually, I'm grateful for any loss and will take what I can get even if it is slow. I feel so blessed to have had this surgery and get the benefits of it. Fran

WooHoo Deb!! You broke 300! I'm so happy for you!! I know you were waiting for that day! Doesn't it feel great? I was so happy when it happened for me, I couldn't believe it. I just noticed your weight and wanted to congratulate you! You're doing so great, keep it up!! Angela 329/274/175

We are about the same. I was 364 on surgery date and now am 285 so you are doing fine. Ann

that's awesome. congrats!

we seem to be about the same. I was 357 day of surgery and 289 this morning. I want more but in reality when you think you have lost that in 4 months you just have to smile. You are doing wonderful!!!!!! have a great day, jennfier

hi i had surgery a day after you, and i was 322 the day of surgery and now am down 70lbs as of yesterday!!!! i think i was considered a heavyweight also (my highest weight a year ago was 350!!!) seems like we are all on the right path here!!!!!

I started out at 259 and have been at 200 for the last month. It's so depressing. Does anyone do the Leslie Sansone, Walk away the pounds videos? I've heard alot about them. Thought I'd give them a try.

Hi Heather, I had surgery on the 4th. Surgery weight 219, heaviest (1 month prior) of 238 or 239 and am now at 169 so we're pretty close. My doctor is thrilled with my pace and so is my PCP. I get my water and protein and walk 30 min/day so don't know if I could do any better...doesn't really matter cuz I'm thrilled with where I am and how it's going. This was the best thing I ever did for myself. Hope you are happy with where you are, too!!! Later, Nancy
